Hercule (Heracles) had to bring back Cerberus alive. This three-headed dog was the guardian to the Underworld: the world of the dead from which no human being could return. The hero overpowered the animal with his bare hands and brought it to Eurystheus who, terrified, ordered Hercules to take the monster back to where he found it. This labour was identified through comparison with images on sarcophagi and mosaics which illustrated this theme.

Musée Saint-Raymond
Musée Saint-Raymond (in English, Saint-Raymond museum) is the archeological museum of Toulouse, opened in 1892. The site originally was a necropolis, and in later constructions was a hospital for the poor and pilgrims, prison, student residence, stables, barracks and presbytery, eventually becoming a museum in 1891. It is housed in the former Saint-Raymond university college dating from the sixteenth century that borders Basilica of Saint-Sernin.
