Answer:

He is related to some Greek gods via his father, and a wise healer

Step-by-step explanation:

Chiron is the son of the titan, Cronus, making him related to some Greek gods, and the sea nymph, (aka oceanid), Philyra. He lived near the base of Mount Pelion, a mountain in the region of Thessaly. He was a medicine man and wise healer. Any Greek god born of Cronus/Kronos is related to Chiron. His foster father/mentor is typically Apollo, who taught him medicine and archery.
