In Greek mythology, Prometheus is the Titan who stole fire from the gods and brought it to mortals for their use. As punishment, he was chained to a rock where a vulture would eat out his liver; it would grow back each day and the vulture would eat it again. Eventually he was freed by Heracles and returned to Olympus?.


A moon of Saturn is named after Prometheus.
