Heracles: Child
built 629 days ago
As a child, Heracles was turned over to tutors by his parents. The tutors, Rhadamanthys and Linus, worked to develop the boy’s virtue and intellect. Later on, Heracles worked on his own to develop his muscles and strength.

The child was originally given the name Alcides by his parents; it was only later that he became known as Heracles. He was renamed Heracles in an unsuccessful attempt to mollify Hera. A few months after he was born, Hera sent two serpents to kill him as he lay in his cot. Heracles throttled a snake in each hand and was found by his nurse playing with their limp bodies as if they were child's toys.

HERACLES means 'Hera's Glory', but after she drove him mad and forced him to kill his own children it was more like Gory. HERA detested most of ZEUS's extra-marital kids, but she hated HERACLES with a divine vengeance and plotted the most evil plots against him.
