He was chained on a mountain in Caucasus. There, a vulture/ eagle ate his liver every day. Because Prometheus was immortal, his liver healed in the night and grew back. This was his punishment for stealing fire for mankind, and was meant to be for all eternity. However, years later he was freed by the Greek Hero Heracles.
