thumb|16th-century woodcut by Virgil Solis, illustrating lines 347–415 of [[Ovid's Metamorphoses]] In Greek mythology, Pyrrha (; ) was the daughter of Epimetheus and Pandora, or of Prometheus.

== Etymology == In Latin, the word pyrrhus means red from the Greek adjective πυρρός, purrhos, meaning "flame coloured", or simply "red", referring in particular to people with red hair, as Pyrrha is described by both Horace and Ovid.
