THE HERO And His GOD

        THE HERO and his GOD In the ANCIENT WORLD         As I was searching the University Museum I came upon the piece of pottery neck AMPHORA (storage vessel). On one side of the vessel it had Hercules wrestling with Nemean Lion, flanked by Athena and Hermes. On the other side it had Dionysus (the idol of wine), and he is dinning with his wife, with Ardine as satyr approaches bringing a jug of wine. A painter of London painted it, in late ordinal b. c. It was a gift of Mr. and Mrs. Franks Peddle Jr.         The subject on the bearing was named Herkles or also known as Hercules. He was the male child of Zeus and Alcmene. He was a ordnance notorious of his might and the 12 labors. He was given 12 labors by the magnate of Mycenae. Which included: the Nemean Lion, the Hydra of Lerna, the Cerynitian Hind, the Erymanthaian Boar, the Cleanign of the Stable of Augeas, the Stymphlian Birds, the Cretan bull, the Margons of Di omedes, the Amozonns (Hippolytas) girdle, the cows of Geryon, the Golden Apples of the Hesperides, and the agate line to the underworld, Herkles was the only human finally do into a God and allowed to live on Mt. Olympus with the other Gods.         thither are several(prenominal) similarities in ancient heroes and today heroes. Since we dont encounter anybody same Herkles who weed fight off big wild animals. We have umteen varied types of heroes. They are known as guard officers, firefighters, paramedics, and tear down sometimes- governmental figures. Like Herkles police officers helps to fight discourtesy and keep out(a) the wild creatures from hurting the everyday citizen. Firefighters are circulate of community putting out fires, rescuing cats from trees and umteen other tasks. Paramedics helps saves peoples bread and butter when they are hurt and sick! Finally even political figures raise be known as a hero. They raise up laws that keep the bad guys of the street from harming others. ! So the differences of ancient hero and modern day heroes is that we have several heroes doing many different thing for the common people instead of difference it up to one single person.
