[PAR] [TLE] Nemean lion [SEP] The Nemean lion ( ; Greek: Νεμέος λέων "Neméos léōn"; Latin: "Leo Nemeaeus" ) was a vicious monster in Greek mythology that lived at Nemea.  It was eventually killed by Heracles.  It could not be killed with mortals' weapons because its golden fur was impervious to attack.  Its claws were sharper than mortals' swords and could cut through any armor. [PAR] [TLE] Heracles [SEP] Heracles ( ; Ancient Greek: Ἡρακλῆς , "Hēraklēs", from "Hēra", "Hera"), born Alcaeus (Ἀλκαῖος , "Alkaios") or Alcides (Ἀλκείδης , "Alkeidēs"), was a divine hero in Greek mythology, the son of Zeus and Alcmene, foster son of Amphitryon and great-grandson and half-brother (as they are both sired by the god Zeus) of Perseus.  He was the greatest of the Greek heroes, a paragon of masculinity, the ancestor of royal clans who claimed to be Heracleidae (Ἡρακλεῖδαι ), and a champion of the Olympian order against chthonic monsters.  In Rome and the modern West, he is known as Hercules, with whom the later Roman emperors, in particular Commodus and Maximian, often identified themselves.  The Romans adopted the Greek version of his life and works essentially unchanged, but added anecdotal detail of their own, some of it linking the hero with the geography of the Central Mediterranean.  Details of his cult were adapted to Rome as well.
