[[File:Met, gandhara, hercules and the nemean lion, 1st century.JPG|thumb|Hercules and the Nemean lion, [[Gandhara]], [[India]], 1st century.]] The '''Nemean lion''' ({{lang-el|Λέων της Νεμέας}} ''{{transl|el|Léōn tēs Neméas}}''; [[Latin]]: ''Leo Nemaeus'') was a vicious [[monster]] in [[Greek mythology]] that lived at Nemea. It was eventually killed by [[Heracles]]. It could not be killed with mortal weapons because its golden fur was impervious to attack. Its claws were sharper than mortal swords and could cut through any armor. {{Europe-stub}} [[Category:Greek legendary creatures]]
