Tantalus (Τάνταλος) (Tántalos) was a king of Phrygia (Φρυγία) (Phrygía) in Greek mythology. Zeus was his father and Pluto (Πλουτώ) was his mother.
Tantalus insulted the gods, so he was sent to Tartarus (Τάρταρος) (Tártaros) to Hades (ᾍδης) (Hā́idēs). There Tantalus suffered greatly.
He had wives and children. Niobe was one of Tantalus' offspring.
