Prometheus and Epimetheus were tasked with creating man. Prometheus shaped man from clay and Athena breathed life into him. However, Epimetheus had used all the good qualities on other creatures, so Prometheus gave man fire and an upright stance. Zeus punished man by having Hephaestus create the beautiful Pandora.

Greek mythology tells stories about the origins of the world and the gods, heroes, and mythical creatures in it. One myth describes how Zeus punished Prometheus for giving fire to humans by chaining him to a rock. As further punishment for Prometheus, Zeus tricked his brother Epimetheus into marrying Pandora, the first woman made of clay. Zeus gave Pandora a box with a note saying not to open it. Pandora's curiosity got the better of her and she opened the box, releasing all the evils of the world, though one thing remained - Hope.
Pandora's box
Zeus tricks Prometheus and takes fire away from humans. Prometheus steals it back, angering Zeus. To take revenge, Zeus has Hephaestus create Pandora, the first woman. Pandora is given as a gift to Epimetheus with only one instruction - not to open the box Zeus also gave her. Curious, Pandora eventually opens the box, releasing all evils into the world such as disease, death, and hatred. All that remains inside is the spirit of hope.
Origin stories: Greek
In the Greek origin story, Chaos emerged first and from it came Gaia, the earth, and other divine beings. Gaia gave birth to Uranus, the sky, and their union created the first Titans. Cronus overthrew his father Uranus and became the ruler of the gods. Fearing that his children would also overthrow him, Cronus ate each of his children except for Zeus, who was saved by his mother Rhea. When Zeus grew up, he fed Cronus a potion that caused him to regurgitate Zeus's siblings. Zeus then led them in a war against Cronus and the Titans, imprisoning the Titans and claiming rule over Mount Olympus for himself and the
Pandora
The document summarizes two Greek myths:
1) The myth of Prometheus tells how he tricked Zeus and stole fire from Olympus to give to humanity, angering Zeus who punished humanity. Prometheus helped humanity despite being punished himself.
2) The myth of Hephaestus describes him as the Greek god of blacksmiths and fire, and son of Hera. He was thrown from Olympus for trying to defend his mother from Zeus, leaving him disabled. He created weapons and armor for the gods.
Tishayprometheus
Prometheus was a Titan known for his forethought who sided with Zeus against Cronus. He is regarded as the benefactor of mankind, gifting them fire and tricking Zeus so that humans could keep the best parts of sacrificial animals for themselves rather than giving them to the gods. As punishment for these acts, Zeus ordered the creation of Pandora and had Prometheus bound to a rock where an eagle would feed on his regenerating liver each day. Eventually, Heracles freed Prometheus from his torture.
Pandora
Pandora was the first human woman created by the gods as a punishment for humanity. Zeus ordered Hephaestus to mold Pandora out of clay and each god gifted her with unique talents. Pandora was given a jar and told not to open it, but her curiosity got the better of her and she opened the jar, releasing all of humanity's evils - diseases, war, vice - into the world. Only hope remained inside once she closed it again. The myth seeks to explain the existence of evil in the world.

Greek mythology sought to explain natural phenomena and aspects of life that were otherwise unexplainable.

Key figures in the myths included Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods to give to humans, and Cronus and the Titans, who were overthrown by Zeus and the Olympians.

Prometheus and pandora
- 3. Prometheus had set his heart on helping mankind, so instead of living on Mt Olympus went out amongst men to live with them. He found them living in caves and in holes of the earth shivering with the cold because there was no fire, dying from starvation, hunted by wild beasts and by one-another, the most miserable of all living creatures.
- 4. So he decided to steal the fire from Hephaestus the fire-god in a hollow fennel-stalk and deliver it to the mortal kind.
- 5. Now people can at least warm themselves, cook their food, melt metals and make tools and build themselves houses.
- 6. When Zeus found out what Prometheus had done, he got mad and chained Prometheus to a big rock on Mount Caucasus. Every day a big eagle would come and eat Prometheus’ liver. But because he was immortal and couldn’t die, every night his liver grew back again and then the next day the bird ate it again.
- 7. Prometheus suffered this torture every day for thirty years until Hercules –years until Prometheus suffered this torture every day for thirty the mortal son of of – released him. Hercules – the mortal sonZeus Zeus – released him.
- 8. Zeus also punished the people by sending them Pandora. He ordered Hephaestus to create a woman using water and clay. The gods endowed her with many gifts: Athena gave her wisdom, Aphrodite beauty, Hermes speech and named her Pandora.
- 9. Zeus sent Pandora down to earth giving her a little box with a big heavy lock on it. He had put inside every kind of disease and sickness, hate and envy, crime, war and all the bad thinks that people had ever experienced before. He made her promise never to open it. But Pandora was curious. She wanted to see what was inside the box so one day she opened it, and all evil contained there in escaped and spread over the earth. Only one thing lay at the bottom – the Spirit of Hope named “ Elpida” . It’s what gives people strength to live, to see and experience the best in life, to move on.
- 10. Later on, when humans were violent and loved to kill, Zeus decided to destroy them all with a great deluge.
- 11. Prometheus’ son Deucalion and his wife Pyrha - the purest humans - built an ark and were the only survivors. They recreated the human race.
