Greek
Prometheus
The Greek Titan who gave fire to people.
In Greek myth Prometheus is a Titan, a clever figure whose name is often explained as meaning "forethought". He is best known for stealing fire and carrying it to humans in a hollow fennel stalk, which angered Zeus, who punished him.
The oldest tellings come from the poet Hesiod, and later writers added details. His brother Epimetheus, whose name means "afterthought", is the one who accepts Pandora. Fire in these stories stands for warmth, craft and learning, as well as for something that needs care.
