Hyperion

Hyperion is one of the twelve Titan gods of Ancient Greece, which were later supplanted by the Olympians. He was the son of Gaea and Uranus, and was referred to in early mythological writings as Helios Hyperion, 'Sun High-one'. In later Ancient Greek literature, Hyperion is always distinguished from Helios - the former was ascribed the characteristics of the 'God of Watchfulness and Wisdom', while the latter became the physical incarnation of the Sun. Hyperion plays virtually no role in Greek culture and little role in mythology, save in lists of the twelve Titans.There is little to no reference to Hyperion during the Titanomachy / Gigantomachy, the epic in which the Olympians battle the ruling Titans, attempting to overthrow them by enlisting the aid of the giants that were imprisoned in Hades.
