He fashioned mankind out of clay and when Zeus deprived them of fire he stole some fire from heaven, giving it to mortals for their use. For that, Zeus ordered him to be chained on top of the Caucasus and every day an eagle would come to eat his [[liver]] which would grow back each night. He is finally delivered from his torment by Heracles ([[Hercules]])
