In Hesiod’s Pandora myth, Hermes delivered Pandora to Epimetheus.
Hermes is the messenger of the Greek gods, and Hesiod gives him a role in Pandora’s introduction to humanity. The god Zeus sends Pandora to Epimetheus, the Titan who accepts her despite an earlier warning from his brother Prometheus not to accept gifts from Zeus.
Pandora’s creation involves several divine contributions. Hephaestus fashions her from earth, while other gods provide attributes or ornaments. Hermes is associated with giving her speech and a deceptive character in some translations and interpretations, then escorting or delivering her to Epimetheus.
The detail is sometimes blurred in modern retellings, which may say simply that Zeus sent Pandora. Zeus is the authority behind the plan, but Hermes is the specific god connected with bringing her to Epimetheus in the usual account. This distinction separates Hermes’s messenger role from Hephaestus’s role as maker.
