According to classical mythology, Hercules, the Roman name for the Greek hero Heracles, had to accomplish the famous 12 labors in order to free himself from the enslavement to Eurystheus, king of Tyryns, and to gain eternal life among the gods. The twelve labors are as follows: 1. the slaying of the Nemean lion, whose skin he thereafter wore; 2. the slaying of the nine-headed Hydra of Lerna; 3. the capture of the elusive hind of Arcadia, sacred to the goddess Diana, with its golden antlers and copper hoofs; 4. the capture of the wild boar of Mount Erymanthus; 5. the cleansing, in a single day, of the cattle stables of King Augeas, which held 3,000 animals and had not been cleaned for thirty years; 6. the shooting of the monstrous man-eating birds of the Stymphalian marshes; 7. the capture of the mad bull that terrorized the island of Crete; 8. the capture of the man-eating mares of King Diomedes; 9. the taking of the girdle of Hippolyte queen of the Amazons; 10. the seizing of the cattle of the three-bodied giant Geryon; 11. the bringing back of the golden apples kept at the world's end by the Hesperides; and 12. the fetching up from the underworld of the triple-headed dog Cerberus, guardian of its gates.
