In ancient Greek mythology, Helios was the god associated with the Sun, or a personification of the Sun: in ancient Greek, helios was the word for the Sun. Some writers treated Helios as the son of the titan Hyperion, while other writers considered Hyperion and Helios to be different names for the same deity.
