Prometheus shaped the first humans out of mud informs them in the image of the gods but Zeus decreed they were to remain mortal and worship the inhabitants of mount olympus from below. Zeus deemed humans subservient creatures vulnerable to the elements and dempended on the gods for portection however Prometheus envisioned his crude creations with a greater purpose so when Zeus asked him to decide how sacrifices would be made the Wiley Prometheus planned a trick that would give humans some advantage he killed a bull and divided it into two parts to present to Zeus on one side he can seal the succulent flesh and skin unappealing belly of the animal on the other he hid bones The a thick layer of fat when Zeus chose the seemingly best portion for himself he was outraged as deception Zeus for bed the use of fire on or whether to cook meat or for any other purpose.
