(Primordial Deity) 10 gods of mountains
Οὔρεα (Oúrea)[1]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Greek_mythological_figures The Ourea. The gods of mountains.
In Greek mythology, the Ourea[pronunciation?] (Ancient Greek: Oὔρεα “mountains,” plural of Oὖρος) were progeny of Gaia, members of the Greek primordial deities, who were the first-born elemental gods and goddesses, children of Gaia:
And she brought forth long hills, graceful haunts
of the goddess Nymphs who dwell amongst the glens of the hills.[1]

Athos
Helikon

Like Uranus, and Pontus, were parthenogenetic offspring of Gaia alone. The Greeks rarely personified an individual mountain; an exception might be Tmolus, both a king and a mountain in Lydia. Each mountain was said to have its own local nymph, an oread.
Peak sanctuaries, a feature of Minoan civilization on Crete, are also identified in some archaic sites in mainland Greece.[2] They are not thought to be dedicated to the mountain itself.

The Nesoi were thought to have been Ourea who were cast under the sea during one of Poseidon‘s rages.
