MYTHOLOGY: Hercules (Herakles in Greek), was the son of the mighty god Zeus and the mortal Alcmene. The goddess Hera, wife of Zeus, was hostile to the youth who had been fathered by her husband out of wedlock. She sent two serpents to destroy him, but even as an infant in the cradle Hercules strangled the serpents, demonstrating the power that was to characterize his life. Hera’s jealousy did not abate. After his marriage she drove him into an anger that caused him to kill his own children. For that rash act he was forced to do penance by serving Eurystheus, king of Mycenae, and performing twelve tasks of superhuman difficulty. They began with the slaying of the Nemean lion with his own hands. Ever afterward he wore the lion’s skin as his symbol.
