BOB.11 1989 Calendar |
Greek Mythology: The twelfth labour of Hercules called for him to descend
into Hades. There he was to abduct the fierce three-headed dog Cerberus,
who guarded the entrance to the land of the dead, and bring him back to
King Eurystheus. The king had set Hercules this task in order to be rid
of the man for good. But Hercules, the strongest of men, subdued the terrible
Cerberus with his bare hands.

the tree of the Golden Apples given by Gaia to Hera as a wedding present.
