Who is the the father of Prometheus and Atlas and an ancestor of the human race?
You're two qualifiers are mutually exclusive. Prometheus and Atlas were not human, they were Titans, and so their parents were Titans as well. They were not ancestors of humans any more than one could say that God is an ancestor of man. Prometheus CREATED man in Greek mythology. That hardly makes him an ancestor. Remember, Wikipedia is edited by everyone... and some people are idiots. For the record, though, Prometheus and Atlas were sons of Iapetos.
