Hercules is a mythological character. Originally he was a Greek concept and known as Heracles Alcaeus or Alcides. He was a divine hero in Greek mythology, the son of Zeus and Alcmene, and the foster son of Amphitryon. He was a descendant and half-brother of Perseus. He was the greatest of the Greek heroes, known for his tremendous strength and power. The Roman equivalent of the same classical mythology was adapted and came to be known as Hercules and since then famous by this name. Since early times, the iconography of strength and prowess in art and literature came to be depicted in the form of this hero Hercules.
