InEpimetheus,thenameoftheotherbrother,epiappearstomeanafter,andis

Itcouldalsobesaidthatthesetwobrothersarethepositiveandnegativeaspectsof

InthemythsaboutPrometheus,severalpointsarestressed:

2.PrometheushadanumberofclasheswithZeusoverhisfriendshipwithmankind.
3.ZeusoncetookFireawayfrommankind,orwithheldit,andPrometheusentered

4.PrometheuspossessedadeepsecretwhichconcernedthefutureofZeusandhis
