{{Distinguish|Helloi}} '''Helios''' ({{lang-grc|Ἥλιος}}, ''Hēlios''; Ἠέλιος in [[Homeric Greek]]) is the [[Sun God|god of the Sun]] in [[Greek mythology]]. He is often thought to be the [[personification]] of the Sun itself. He is the [[son]] of the [[Titan (mythology)|Titans]] [[Hyperion (titan)|Hyperion]] and [[Theia]]. He is the brother of [[Selene]], goddess of the Moon, and [[Eos]], goddess of the dawn.
