When Prometheus stole fire from Zeus and gave it to men, there was a twofold punishment: 1) Prometheus was chained to the Caucasus mountains and 2) Pandora, the first woman, was created. If we use the creation of Pandora as a time reference, we might assume that she was created no later than 40,000 years ago.
