Saturn in Myth: In Roman mythology, Saturn was a god of fertility and agriculture. He was commonly identified with the Greek god Cronus (Kronos), and there is an interesting story that explains how Cronus was transformed into Saturn.
According to the myth, Saturn introduced agriculture to his people by teaching them how to farm the land. For this reason Saturn was thought of as a god of fertility and agriculture. He is regarded as the father of Jupiter, Ceres, Juno and many others. His wife is the goddess Ops.
Saturday is named after him.
