You can use either one

Explanation:

1.)Namely, soon after the Creation of the world, the then-ruler of the Gods Cronus – who had learned that one of his children would overthrow him – swallowed Zeus’ three sisters and two brothers at birth: Demeter, Hera, Hestia, Hades, and Poseidon.

Poseidon got the sea, Hades the underworld, and Zeus the sky. Finally, Zeus was crowned to be the Ruler of all Gods and Men, referred to universally as Father.

Zeus chained Prometheus to a rock and tormented him for ages, but Prometheus stubbornly refused to reveal to him the secret. In the end, for reasons we don’t know , the Titan did tell Zeus that the woman in question is Thetis, so the god stopped pursuing her and gave her to Peleus.

Zeus’ seventh and final wife was his sister, Hera.

Zeus' sacred plants were the Oak tree and the Olive tree.

2.)Zeus is the sixth child of Cronos and Rhea, king and queen of the Titans.

When Zeus was born, Rhea hid him in a cave on Mount Ida in Crete, giving Cronos a stone wrapped in swaddling clothes to swallow instead.

When Zeus was older he went to free his brothers and sisters; together with their allies, the Hekatonkheires and the Elder Cyclopes, Zeus and his siblings fought against the Titans in a ten-year war known as the Titanomachy.

At the end of the war, Zeus took Cronos' scythe and cut him into pieces, throwing his remains into Tartarus.

The supreme deity of the Greek pantheon, Zeus was universally respected and revered throughout Ancient Greece; the ancient Olympic Games were held at the site of Olympia every four years in honor of him.
