Περὶ τοῦ τὸν Προμηθέα περὶ τὴν Ἀκαδήμειαν καὶ τὸν Κολωνὸν ἱδρῦσθαι Ἀπολλόδωρος γράφει οὕτως· «Συντιμᾶται δὲ καὶ ἐν τῇ Ἀκαδημίᾳ τῇ Ἀθηνᾷ, καθάπερ ὁ Ἥφαιστος. Καὶ ἔστιν αὐτοῦ παλαιὸν ἵδρυμα καὶ βωμὸς ἐν τῷ τεμένει τῆς θεοῦ.» Δείκνυται δὲ καὶ βάσις ἀρχαία κατὰ τὴν εἴσοδον, ἐν ᾗ τοῦ τε Προμηθέως ἐστὶ τύπος καὶ τοῦ Ἡφαίστου. Πεποίηται δὲ, ὡς καὶ Λυσιμαχίδης φησὶν, ὁ μὲν Προμηθεὺς πρῶτος καὶ πρεσβύτερος, ἐν δεξιᾷ σκῆπτρον ἔχων, ὁ δὲ Ἥφαιστος νέος καὶ δεύτερος. Καὶ βωμὸς ἀμφοῖν κοινός ἐστιν ἐν τῇ βάσει ἀποτετυπωμένος.
