The demigod Heracles, called Hercules by the Romans, is one of the most famous heroes of Greek mythology, known for his incredible strength and courage. Son of the god Zeus and the mortal Alcmena, Hercules had to face a series of challenges to prove his worth and earn immortality, such as the famous 12 Labors, imposed upon him as penance for the murder of his wife and children, committed in a fit of madness. Among the best-known labors are the capture of the Nemean Lion, the Cretan Bull, the cleaning of the Augean stables, and the obtaining of the golden apples from the garden of the Hesperides.
