Kronion, also called Mount Kronos, is a mountain located in the Valley of Olympia in Elis, Greece, overlooking the nearby Sanctuary of Olympia.
At some point a temple had been built on top of the hill, but only ruins of it remained by the 5th century BCE. The statue of the Titan Kronos eating one of his children, however, had survived, and priests made offerings to it each spring equinox.[1]
During the Peloponnesian War the misthios Kassandra explored the hill.[1]
