The English word "tantalize" was adopted during the 1590s from the Latin language word "Tantalus", which had been adopted from the Greek language masculine given name of Tantalos, who was the king of Phrygia, a son of Zeus, and the father of Penelope and Niobe. He is famous for having been punished in the afterlife by being made to stand in a river up to his chin, just under fruit-laden branches that withdrew from his reach whenever he tried to eat or drink. It seems Chaucer made reference to him around 1369.
