Statuia Farnese Hercules, copie romană după originalul grec
Heracle (în greacă vecheἩρακλῆς, Hēraklēs), cunoscut și sub numele de Hercule în limba română (din latinăHercules), născut Alcaeus sau Alcide, este cel mai cunoscut erou din mitologia greacă, neîntrecut în forță și vitejie și care, după moarte, a fost primit în rândul zeilor devenind astfel nemuritor.
Grecii antici sărbătoreau festivalul Heracleea, care comemora moartea lui Heracle, în a doua zi a lunii Metageitnion (sfârșitul lunii iulie sau începutul lui august).
