Is there an indirect object in this sentence Prometheus stole fire from the Olympians?

No. "Prometheus" is the subject, "stole" is the transitive verb, "fire" is the direct object, and "from the Olympians" is a prepositional phrase with "from" as the preposition and "Olympians" as the object of the preposition.


Frankenstein subtitle is the modern Prometheus who was Prometheus?

In Greek mythology Prometheus was a Titan. The Titans were the Gods that were in charge before the Olympians took over. Prometheus sided with the Olympians in the war of succession but after wards was considered to be something of a poor cousin. He is the one credited with the creation of man from earth -- hence the equating with Dr. Frankenstein. Also Prometheus came to a bad end (he stole fire from the Gods to give to men which offended Zeus. So he got chained to a rock with an eagle visiting him every day and eating out his liver.) So the association is also an ominous one.

HOW IS Prometheus related to the Rockafellers?

From what little I know of the Rockafellers and the large amount I know of Prometheus, I'm sure an answer can be gleaned from this: Prometheus brought fire to uncivilized man, making them civilized. In one myth tradition, man was actually created by Prometheus. In another, man was made in the image of Prometheus. It can be said that although Prometheus was a Titan, the gods above the Olympians, he was the closest link between gods and men. That's full of symbolism right there.
