The legend of the origin of Leo
Hercules, born of Zeus and Akmini, was appointed king of Yeristos and had to complete twelve arduous tasks. The first task is to subdue the immortal man-eating lion in Niemi Valley. The lion eats only domestic animals and villagers, and everyone is afraid. Someone tried to subdue it before, but no survivors were found.
Hercules, who came to Neme Valley, was also lost for many days before he found the trace of the lion. Hercules tried to shoot an arrow, but the lion's skin was too hard to work.
When he cut the sword, it was broken, so he made a thick stick from an olive tree and hit the lion hard on the head. At this time, the lion who was not afraid of the bow and sword was also afraid of the angry Hercules. Hercules strangled him and was finally subdued by him. To commemorate this lion, the goddess Hera set up a lion constellation in the sky.
