In Greek mythology, Epimetheus is known as the brother of Prometheus and is often associated with the creation of mankind. While Prometheus is credited with molding humans from clay and stealing fire from the gods to give to humanity, Epimetheus plays a supportive role by providing gifts and traits to the animals and humans. However, his lack of foresight led to the creation of Pandora, the first woman, who unleashed troubles onto mankind by opening a forbidden box. Thus, Epimetheus's actions indirectly contributed to the challenges faced by humanity.
