Yes, in Greek mythology, Zeus did not actually eat his children. His wife, Hera, attempted to prevent Zeus from fathering any more children by tricking him into thinking she had given birth to a child named Typhon. Zeus then swallowed a rock wrapped in swaddling clothes, thinking it was the baby. This myth may have been misinterpreted over time, leading to the misconception that Zeus ate his children.
