Ah now one my speicalaity's. Pandor's; wife of "epimethius" (after-thought) brother of "promethius" (before-though; thought though thinks and didn't rush). both were tiatians created (cording to mythology) by rhea and Cronus ('master' of time), they helped the olympians with the battle against Rhea and Cronus. Anway. Pandora in greek (i think) means "all gifited"; corrding to how one of the myth's go; when epimeth (or pro; I forget) gave us (humans) fire Zeus (god of all) was fruios and thus with the help of the other gods/goddeness (I think created pandora) and a box that contained many evils; one day pandora and epi opned the box which let many evil's get out. like diease, etc. myth and history, my two specialityes (american history) and greek/roman myth. |

You need to brush up on your Greek mythology. Pandora wasn't married to Promethius. Zeus created her as a trap for man, because Promethius favored man so much. He gave her a box filled with the woes of men, and didn't tell her what was in it. He just told her never to open it. So she got curious and opened the box, releasing all the terrible things inside to wreak havoc on men and saving Zeus from having to do it himself. The only good thing in the box was hope. Anyhow, she was supposed to be the cause for the suffering of men and her box was not something nice to be playing with. Hence the suggestion of its use here.*Lothlómendil studied a lot of Greek mythology*

I said epimeth, also my stupid mom was rushing me to go to school, I live like 3 mins away from the place. Epiloge is from the epimethius as is prologue - promethius. I only read like one story of the box so I can't remember like the whole thing; but I know like the basics of it. I do like the name "Pandora's box". |

"Prologue" and "epilogue" don't come from the Greek gods Promethius and Epimethus. "Pro" is just the Greek word for "before", and "epi" the word for "after". Their names, as you even already said, just mean "forethought" and "afterthought". They were words long before they were part of the names of these fictional gods. :rolleyes:
