Hm. Epimethus was the god of excuses, breakdowns, stuff-ups and afterthoughts (of the "maybe we shouldn't have ... " variety). Wonder if they knew that ?
OTOH he was the brother of Prometheus and (Norton) Atlas, so that may have been a factor.
He was also regarded as a right plonker, but since , like me, he fell foul of that bastard Zeus I have sympathy with him.
