In Greek mythology, Crius was one of the Titans, a son of Uranus and Gaia. He was overthrown in the Titanomachy.

He was involved in the ten year long war between the Olymian and Titanian gods. After Zeus (the leader of the Olymians) went to Gaea to ask for help and she said to release the Cyclops and the hundred handed ones, the war was lost and Crius was banished to the lower basement of Hades (hell) called Taturus.

With Eurybia, he was the father of Pallas.
