The modern Prometheus is inside us. In some people, he is deeply buried below the weight of fear, ignorance and superstition, the triad of the unenlightened. Other people already possess the fire of the gods and they are doing the best they can to distribute it. What we need are more people committed for education and social justice to uncover those captive Prometheus that will assure us the freedom from that triad.

He was the Titan who gave humans fire from the heavens, He was chained to a rock to have his liver torn out daily,(by eagles I think , or vultures).
Quite a punishment for a Immortal.
Someone wanted us to remain ignorant .
More abstractly , he allowed us to become self aware and conscious of the world and the ability to change it.

I would say he is remembered as the ancient Titan that brought fire to the world as a gift.
