Prometheus stole fire from Mount Olympus and brought it down to Earth and gave it to man. He then taught man to cook, forge metals, and other useful skills that made civilization what it is today. When Zeus found out, he chained Prometheus to a mountain and had a vulture eat Prometheus's liver every day. Zeus also decided to punish man by making Pandora, the first woman. She was given a box. She was ADHD so she opened it, releasing all bad things to mankind. Only Hope was left in the box.
