Atlas come from the name of a greek gaint.
Many people and paintings depict the titan Atlas holding up the world. This is entirely not true. When the gods of Greek Mythology beat their older relatives (the titans) in a war, Zeus assigned the strongest titan (Atlas) to hold up the SKY not the world.
like atlas, to take the world on my shoulders
It got its name from a Greek God named Atlas. He was tricked into carrying the world on his shoulders. A long ago,his picture was often placed on the first page of books of maps. So a book of books came to be as atlas.
No one killed Atlas. He was a Titan, therefore immortal. But Zeus did sentence him to carry the weight of the world, so I suppose that could be what you meant.
