Description "Labor Nine: Hippolyte's Belt

The ninth Labor took Heracles to the land of the Amazons, to retrieve the belt of their queen for Eurystheus' daughter. The Amazons were a race of warrior women, great archers who had invented the art of fighting from horseback. Heracles recruited a number of heroes to accompany him on this expedition, among them Theseus. As it turned out, the Amazon queen, Hippolyte, willingly gave Hercules her belt, but Hera was not about to let the hero get off so easily. The goddess stirred up the Amazons with a rumor that the Greeks had captured their queen, and a great battle ensued. Heracles made off with the belt, and Theseus kidnapped an Amazon princess.

It really is a belt, and it's even more beautiful than the Treasure of the Dwarrowdelf. I see you like mythology then Good work!

Thank you! But I still think that "Dwarrowdelf" is better, 'cause it's my personal fave
I do like mythology indeed, ever since high school.

I'm quite fond of mythology too, and I remember reading the Twelve as well, but I couldn't remember them that well. You know them better than me it seems xD

No, not really. But since the internet is always available, I can refresh my knowledge any time.
