Pandora
In Greek
mythology, Pandora (Greek: Πανδώρα, derived from πᾶν, pān, i.e. "all" and δῶρον, dōron, i.e. "gift", thus "the all-endowed",
"the all-gifted" or "the all-giving") was the first
human woman created by the gods, specifically by Hephaestus and Athena on
the instructions of Zeus. As Hesiod related it, each god
helped create her by giving her unique gifts. Zeus ordered Hephaestus to mold
her out of earth as part of the punishment of humanity for Prometheus'
theft of the secret of fire, and all the gods joined in offering her
"seductive gifts"
