Prometheus was brother of Epimetheus, and a Titan. He saw that humans were miserable, starved, and cold. He realised that they needed fire, so he took a spark from Zeus’ lightning bolt and brought it down to the humans. When Zeus realised this, he sent Prometheus to be chained to a rock on the side of a mountain and vulture was to eat his liver every day as punishment. Prometheus was happy though, that he’d introduced mankind to fire, and he looked on to the future everyday. Hercules eventually came to rescue him.
