For the record I did do a search for this and nothing came up. Pretty neat little tid bit on the 'Aesop's Fables' version of Prometheus. Nothing really to be gained from this except a different kind of version that I thought would be fairly well received by everyone. - - - Prometheus and the Making of Man: At the bidding of Jupiter, Prometheus set about the creation of Man and the other animals. Jupiter, seeing that mankind, the only rational creatures, were far outnumbered by the irrational beasts, bade him redress the balance by turning some of the latter into men. Prometheus did as he was bid, and this is the reason why some people have the forms of men, but the souls of beasts. - - - So my interpretation of this is: Prometheus made man at first, and the animals. Man far outnumbered animals and where each one rational (sane, sensible, etc...) To make things interesting, Prometheus was ordered to give some men traits of being irrational (insane, without or deprived of normal mental clarity or sound judgment.) - - - Hmmm [b]Damn you "Jupiter" for making things interesting for your own amusement, can you see what you've done???!!![/b] :)
