Who is the legendary ancestor of the true Greek?

There are a couple of possible answers to this question. The first is Deucalion and his wife Pyrrha. Zeus decided to end the bronze age by flooding the world, Deucalion and Pyrrha survived by building an ark. The evidence of these two being the legendary ancestor of the true Greek comes from the myth of the flood. The second possibility is Hellen, the daughter of Deucalion and Pyrrha. The Greek word for Greece is Hellas and the Greeks are often referred to as the Hellenics. This could be evidence of Hellen being the ancestor of the true Greek.

How are Pandora and eve different?

Eve, made by God from Adam's rib. Pandora, the first mortal woman made by Hephaestus, son of Zeus - for the Titan god Epimetheus (Afterthought). Eve, Adam's wife - had Cain and Abel. Pandora, wife of Epimetheus - had Pyrrha. Eve ate of the Tree of Good and Evil, planted by God. She then knew of Evil and Good: hence "Fruit of Knowledge". Pandora opened the storage jar (Pithos) which Zeus had gifted to her and Epimetheus for a wedding present. Releasing all evils upon the world/mankind, save hope which remained in the jar. Pandora's daughter Pyrrha married Deucalion and were the first king and queen of Northern Greece. Adam and Eve lived in Eden, and where cast out. Pyrrha and Deucalion survived the Great Deluge (a Flood) which Zeus had sent to rid the world of the wicked men and women of the Bronze Age. Cain killed Abel. Pyrrha and Deucalion repopulated the world by throwing "the bones of the mother" (rocks) - in this way the rocks thrown by Pyrrha were women and the rocks thrown by Deucalion men. Quite a lot of differences.
