天上に輝く[[みずがめ座]]は、神々に神酒ネクタールを給仕するガニュメーデースの姿であり、[[わし座]]はゼウスが彼を攫うときに変身した鷲の姿である。
=== Prometheus and conflicts with humans プロメテウスと人間との軋轢 ===
When the gods met at Mecone to discuss which portions they will receive after a sacrifice, the titan [[Prometheus]] decided to trick Zeus so that [[humans]] receive the better portions. He sacrificed a large [[ox]], and divided it into two piles. In one pile he put all the meat and most of the fat, covering it with the ox's grotesque stomach, while in the other pile, he dressed up the bones with fat. Prometheus then invited Zeus to choose; Zeus chose the pile of bones. This set a precedent for sacrifices, where humans will keep the fat for themselves and burn the bones for the gods.
