Chronos

/ˈkroʊnɒs/ noun

In Greek philosophy and psychology, chronos refers to chronological or sequential time, as opposed to kairos (qualitative or experiential time). Also the Greek god of time.

From ancient Greek 'Χρόνος' (Chronos), meaning 'time.' In Greek mythology, Chronos was the personification of time, sometimes confused with Cronus (Kronos), the Titan father of Zeus. The philosophical distinction between chronos and kairos was developed by ancient Greek thinkers to differentiate mechanical time from meaningful time.
