In Greek mythology, who was Pandora’s husband and the father of Pyrrha?

In Greek mythology, Pandora’s husband and the father of Pyrrha was Epimetheus.

Epimetheus was a Titan associated with hindsight and poor judgment. His name is commonly contrasted with Prometheus, whose name suggests forethought. Zeus gave Pandora to Epimetheus after Prometheus warned him not to accept gifts from the gods, but Epimetheus accepted her and married her.

Their daughter Pyrrha later became the wife of Deucalion and survived the great flood in a separate mythic episode. This makes Epimetheus an important link between the Pandora story and the Greek account of humanity’s renewal after catastrophe.

Different ancient sources vary in their genealogical details, and some traditions give Pandora other relationships. The standard family connection in widely used mythological summaries is Pandora and Epimetheus as parents of Pyrrha. Epimetheus is not Pandora’s creator; that role belongs to Hephaestus in Hesiod’s account.
