Most ancient Greek sources say Chaos is the first primeval god. Chaos was the empty void from which all things sprang. Although, some Greek sources say Chronos, the god of time, was the first.

It is not currently known which god the Greeks were worshiping first, however worship of many of the Olympian pantheon predates the written word in Greece, and the myths themselves relate to Greece's prehistoric past.

Now mythologically, the first "god" was Chaos. From her all other gods in the Greek pantheon draw their lineage.
