Description
Creation of Athena and Hephaestus.
"The one who gives everything", "The one who has everything", "The one who takes everything away".
In Greek mythology, she was the first woman, created by Hephaestus and Athena at the request of Zeus in order to please men.
The myth of Pandora is a kind of theodicy, as it seeks to explain the origin of evil in the world, which, according to the myth, would have arisen when Pandora opened "Pandora's Box", spreading all evil throughout the world.
According to the myth, Zeus was enraged, with the humans, who received the art of making fire from Prometheus, and decided to give mankind a "gift" that would result in punishment, to compensate for the advantage they received from Prometheus. So he ordered Hephaestus and Athena to mold the first woman out of the earth, a "beautiful evil" whose descendants would torment the human race.
Then Hermes gave her "a shameless mind and a deceitful nature", the power of speech, adding "lies and cunning words". In addition, other gods gave him other qualities, such as: grace, beauty, persuasion, intelligence, patience, sweetness, skill in dancing and manual work.
Made in the likeness of the immortal goddesses, when she first appeared before men: "wonder seized them," but she was "pure cunning, not to be resisted of men." She was sent to the titan Epimetheus, whom Prometheus had recommended not to receive any gifts from the gods. Seeing her radiant beauty, Epimetheus forgot what his brother had told him and took her as his wife.
As a wedding gift, the gods gave Epimetheus a box, which contained all evils. Pandora, contrary to an express order to the contrary, dominated by her immense curiosity, opened the box and all the evils spread throughout the world, leaving, retained in the container, only hope. Thus, the times of innocence and bliss, known as the Golden Age, ended.
Most of the deities that came out of the box are children of Nyx, such as: Adefagia (Gluttony), Aergia (Sloth), Algea (Pain and Suffering), Anaideia (Cruelty), Apáte (Deceit, Cunning, Malice, Betrayal and Disappointment) , Aras (Curses), Ate (Illusion, Passion, Folly, Recklessness, and Ruin), Cacia (Vice and Immorality), Coalemos (Stupidity), Como (Orgies and Lust), Dolo (Malice, Trickery, and Deceit), Eris (Discordia ), Geras (Old Age), Ftisis (Decay and Waste), Phtonos (Envy and Jealousy), Limos (Hunger), Lugra (Pests), Lissa (Rage), Mania (Madness, Insanity and Ecstasy), Momo (Mockery, Criticism and Cynicism), Neikea (Fights, Feuds and Complaints), Queres (Diseases), Oizus (Misery and Misfortune), Pentos (Mourning, Sadness and Lamentation), Polemos (Spirit of War), Pseudologos (Lies), Empusa (Specters of Hecate - they were not Nyx's daughters) the only one left in the box was: Elpis (Hope).
