Greek Mythology Hercules Questions
and Answers
Hercules - answer Greek name: Heracles
Roman name: Hercules

Obviously, we know him more by his Roman name

Who were Hercules's parents? - answer -Dad: Zeus
-Mom: Alcemena (even though she's marred to Amphitryon)

Where did Hercules's parents live? - answer In the doomed city of Thebes

What was Tiresias's prophecy regarding Hercules? - answer "He shall be the hero of
all mankind"

Why did Hercules spend his life in turmoil and struggle? - answer Hera hated him for
being Zeus's son, so she made his life miserable with the intent of killing him

Hercules's Personality - answer -Not smart, intellect wasn't very strong
-Very emotional
-Unintentionally brutish at times

Hercules's Physicality - answer -Very, very strong

Example of Hercules's Brutishness - answer He accidentally killed his music teacher
by braining him with a lute

Where did Hercules's cloak come from? - answer A Thespian lion he killed in his
youth

What story proved that at an early age, Hercules had extraordinary physical strength? -
answer The story of him killing 2 snakes that crawled into the nursery he and his
brother were in when they were babies

What was the reason for the Twelve Labors of Hercules? - answer -*Hera* made
Hercules go mad, resulting in him *killing his wife and 3 children*
-He felt terrible afterwards, when he was told what he had done
-Theseus *rubbed the blood on Hercules's hands on his own hands* so he could *share
the blame* with him
-He also offered Hercules *a place in Athens*
-Hercules didn't stay long - he *went to Apollo's oracle at Delphi*
-The *oracle* told him to *go to Eurystheus for purification*

, Who devised the twelve labors? - answer Eurystheus, King of Mycenane (Tiryns in
some stories)

Some say that he was influenced by Hera when crafting the labors

The First Labor - answer -*Kill the Nemean lion, which no weapon could wound*
-Hercules choked the lion to death
-Dragged it to Mycenae
-From then on out, Eurystheus gave orders from afar

The Second Labor - answer -*Go to Lerna and kill the 9 headed monster known as
the Hydra in a swamp*
-Problem was, the hydra had one head that was immortal
-Oh, and if you cut off one head, 2 more would grow in it's place
-Hercules's nephew, Iolaus, gave him a burning brand so he could sear the necks that
he cut off so more heads wouldn't grow
-When defeated, he buried the immortal Hydra under a rock

The Third Labor - answer -*Bring back a stag with horns of gold. Alive.*
-Note: the stag was sacred to Artemis and was in Cerynitia
-Hercules would have killed it easily, but hunting it and keeping it alive proved to be a
challenge for him
-It took him a year to hunt it

The Fourth Labor - answer -*Capture a great boar that resided on Mount
Erymanthus*
-Chased the boar until it was exhausted
-Then drove the boar into the deep snow and captured it

The Fifth Labor - answer -*Clean the Augean stables*
-Which, you know, haven't been cleaned in years and years and yeah, basically, *a long
time*
-Oh, and 1000s of cattle had been in this stable too
-So Hercules just diverted the courses of 2 rives so they flowed through the stables and
flooded them to clean up all the filth

The Sixth Labor - answer -*Drive the Stymphalian birds plaguing the people of
Stymphalus*
-The birds were an issue because there were too many of them
-Athena helped Hercules by scaring them with a rattle (in some stories, it's a bell) to
drive them out of their coverts
-Hercules would shoot the birds as they flew up

The Seventh Labor - answer -*Go to Crete and fetch a beautiful savage bull*
-Fun fact: the bull was given to Minos from Poseidon
-Hercules mastered the bull, put him in a boat, and gave it to Eurystheus
