Pandora Da Cunha Telles
In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first human woman created by Hephaestus on the instructions of Zeus. As Hesiod related it, each god cooperated by giving her unique gifts. Her other name—inscribed against her figure on a white-ground ''kylix'' in the British Museum—is Anesidora (), "she who sends up gifts" (''up'' implying "from below" within the earth).
