Lerna and Pontinos Hill

Ancient Lerna (or Lerni) is the place where Herakles killed Lernaia Hydra, a nine-headed water serpent, which lived in the river Lerna or Amymone. Amymone was one of Danaos' daughters who was saved by Poseidon and the god showed her the springs of Lerna (or Fountains of Amymone)(Apollodorus 2, 14 - Pausanias, Corinthiaca 37, 1).
