In Greek mythology, Pandora (Ancient Greek: Πανδώρα, derived from πᾶς "all" and δῶρον "gift", thus "all-gifted" or "all-giving")[1] was a daughter of King Deucalion and Pyrrha who was named after her maternal grandmother, the more famous Pandora.[2] Her brother was Hellen.

According to the Hesiodic Catalogue of Women, she was the mother of Graecus by the god Zeus.[3][4] In some accounts, Pandora's children by Zeus were called Melera and Pandorus.[5]
