Prometheus Unmasked as the Last Sumerian King

 

For thousands of years, Prometheus has been held as an icon, particularly to what we now call the “cognitive elite.”

Is Prometheus ultimately a symbol - like Mithras, like the Watchers - of a lost time and place when men spoke to gods and gods spoke to men?

And does all this somehow tie into the connections we’ve explored in the Lucifer’s Technologies series?
