HERACLES
*Greek
HERACLES (Known to the Romans as Hercules) was the greatest of all the
Greek heroes, and is especially famous for the twelve Labours he
undertook. ZEUS was his father, and a mortal, Alcmene, his mother. HERA,
Zeus's jealous wife, was thus his deadly enemy and placed many obstacles
in his path.
