Pandora was sent to Epimetheus as part of a punishment to humanity by the gods, specifically by Zeus. After Prometheus, Epimetheus's brother, stole fire from the gods and gave it to humans, Zeus created Pandora as a beautiful but deceptive gift to Epimetheus. Despite Prometheus's warning not to accept any gifts from the gods, Epimetheus was captivated by Pandora and accepted her, ultimately leading to the opening of her jar (or box) and the release of evils into the world.
