Prometheus
Prometheus Pro*me"the*us, n. [L., fr. Gr. ?, from ? to have
forethought for.] (Class. Myth.)
The son of Iapetus (one of the Titans) and Clymene, fabled by
the poets to have surpassed all mankind in knowledge, and to
have formed men of clay to whom he gave life by means of fire
stolen from heaven. Jupiter, being angry at this, sent
Mercury to bind Prometheus to Mount Caucasus, where a vulture
preyed upon his liver.
