Cattle of Geryon

These cattle belonged to Geryon. They were watched over by Orthrus.

Heracles
Heracles came to steal the cattle from Geryon as part of his 10th labor. Whilst he was traveling through the desert, Heracles, tired of the burning sun,  shot an arrow at Helios. Helios, in admiration, gave him a golden cup, which he used to sail to Geryon's island home. Heracles killed Geryon and Orthrus with poisonous arrows and stole the cattle. When Heracles brought the cattle back, they were sacrificed to Hera.
