Rhea or Rheia (/ ˈ r iː ə /; [1] Ancient Greek: Ῥέα or Ῥεία [r̥ěː.aː]) is a mother goddess in ancient Greek religion and mythology, the Titan daughter of the earth goddess Gaia and the sky god Uranus, himself a son of Gaia.
The name "rhea" was used in 1752 by Paul Möhring and adopted as the English common name. Möhring named the rhea after the Greek Titan Rhea, whose Ancient Greek name (Ῥέα) is thought to come from ἔρα (éra, "ground"). This was fitting with the rhea being a flightless ground bird.
The greater rhea (Rhea americana) is a species of flightless bird native to eastern South America. Other names for the greater rhea include the grey , common , or American rhea ; ema ( Portuguese ); or ñandú ( Guaraní and Spanish ).
Rhea may refer to: Rhea (bird), genus of flightless birds native to South America; Rhea (moon), a moon of Saturn; Rhea (mythology), a Titaness in Greek mythology;
