A man born into the spiritual and earthly border, the wander of the old milky path. Hercules was truly a much greater character ever mentioned by the Greeks, his mere background history, and his visual look, seem to go more beyond what Alexandria the Great might have wanted to be.

Between 500 B.C and 400 B.C something very visual happens,Who is The Real Greek Hercules Articles which no one seems to speak about. But was it the Greeks that changed it, or might it have been the Romans whom changed so many things, even history itself.

Hercules’ most visual change in those one hundred years, is that he goes from being a black man to being a white man… Look at the vases dating from the beginning of 500 B.C, and compare these to the vases dating from the end of 500 B.C and up until our day. Then you will clearly see the character to be a more northern person, whereas the older ones don’t even portray a Greek, but rather some other race.

In my research I have come to find that the Greeks were more truthful than the Romans, who apparently did not understand what they themselves were doing. So I believe that the black version is a truthful Greek object from the beginning of their empire (Alexandria the Great came to rule around 330 B.C) The Romans used a new way of infiltrating a government, through the Greeks own way of living. But no matter what it is clearly evident that his skin color and character changes.

Why is probably a question that we already know the answer to (sad to say).

Another reason as to why I conclude that the black character belongs to the Greek ear is Because of the other characters that are portrayed on vases in the same time period. There is a vase portraying Hercules’ priests along side Hermes, where the priest are White and Hermes is Black. Some scholars say that the white characters are rich women and this is why they are white and more distinct. But I cannot agree upon this, because of what I myself have seen upon these vases.

A vase portrays Arthenes birth, and here all the characters have changed to white.

On the vase that portrays; Hercules being presented on the Olympia by Hermes and Athene are all black characters, this vase dating to 500 B.C.

I have found that the vases found around 650 B.C seems even more oddly than those coming after. Here one character has a black body with a white head, but the body seems to have rather abstract proportions, such as a very long torso and very small arms, and very long and beautiful legs. The face seems to be painted half bright white, like a mask of some sort, but the ears and neck shows the normal white skin color (more darken than the upper part, which looks like a mask). But another character on the same vase, is all white, but has the same odd proportion. Actually I also found a Sumerian icon displayed upon the same vase.
