The tenth labor of Hercules was to bring back to Greece the beautiful cattle in the possession of Geryon on the island of Erythea. One difficulty in taking the cattle from Geryon was his encounter with Cacus, a fire breathing monster who lived on human flesh. Upon discovering that four bulls and four heifers were missing from the herd Hercules followed the lowing of one of the heifers to the cave where Cacus was holding the cattle. A fierce battle ensued with Cacus billowing clouds of smoke and fire. Finally, Hercules leapt on Cacus and strangled him, ridding the area of the menacing monster and recovering the stolen cattle. The statue, carved in 1534 stands in front of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence close to the spot where Michelangelo's David had been placed thirty years before.
