A flood is sent to destroy mankind. Prometheus warned his son of the flood. His son, Deucalion, built an ark. Deucalion and his wife Pyrrha endured the flood which lasted 9 days before they landed at Mt. Parnassus. They were alone and called on the goddess of prophecy, Themis, for company. The titan told them to throw stones onto the earth. Deucalion’s stones became men and Pyrrha’s stones became women.
