The Games

The Gold medal symbolises Father Sun, the Silver medal Sister Moon, and Bronze Mother Earth. "Bronze" or "Mother Earth" will always come in "third" because without Father Sun and Sister Moon life on Mother Earth cannot exist. 

Zeus decreed that man must present a portion of each animal he scarified to the gods, Prometheus decided to trick Zeus. He created two piles, one with the bones wrapped in juicy fat, the other with the good meat hidden in the hide. He then bade Zeus to pick. Zeus picked the bones. Since he had given his word, Zeus had to accept this pile as his share for future sacrafices. In his anger over the trick, he took fire away from man. However, Prometheus lit a torch from the sun and brought it back again to man.
