The Greek name for fennel is ''marathon'' ({{lang|grc|μάραθον}}) or ''marathos'' ({{lang|grc|μάραθος}}), and the place of the famous [[battle of Marathon]] literally means a plain with fennel. The word is first attested in [[Mycenaean Greek|Mycenaean]] [[Linear B]] form as ''{{lang|gmy|ma-ra-tu-wo}}''. In [[Hesiod]]'s ''[[Theogony]]'', [[Prometheus]] steals the ember of fire from the gods in a hollow fennel stalk.
