labors. There are many versions of this
myth, but the too long didn't read version
says that the lion was sent to Nemea
(which is situated in modern-day Corinthia),
to terrorize the city. In one version of the
myth, the Lion was sent to lure heroes to
their doom, by using women as bait who
would then turn into a lion when the hero
would arrive at the lion's den. The lion was
impervious to arrows due to its golden fur,
but Hercules was eventually triumphant
and was able to defeat the lion with his bare
hands. This would be the first of 12 trials
