A mid-sixth-century BC Laconian cup by the Hunt Painter adds several new features to the scene which also become common in later works: three heads, a snake tail, Cerberus' chain and Heracles' club.

He is being held on a chain leash by Heracles who holds his club raised over head. [127]

Stern, Jacob, Palaephatus Πεπὶ Ὰπίστων, On Unbelievable Tales, Bolchazy-Carducci Publishers, 1996. ISBN 9780865163201. A gatefold sleeve confronts you with a two-headed bulldog, in front of some no doubt historical edifice, despite its ultra-cheapo tinting. The rear gives you no clues, and miscredits the names of three out of four band members (swish!). The inside of the gatefold reveals, on one side, a very blurry pic of four young guys who BLOODY WELL MEANT BUSINESS. The other side shows the four guys one by one - they look MEAN ; you can almost smell them, just by looking. Seneca, in his tragedy Hercules Furens gives a detailed description of Cerberus and his capture. [118]Apollodorus, 2.5.12.

Nevertheless, most everyone else in the medical community believes that a transplant of this kind is still science-fiction fodder. But in the not-too-distant future, such a surgery may actually become a reality.

In the constellation Cerberus introduced by Johannes Hevelius in 1687, Cerberus is drawn as a three-headed snake, held in Hercules' hand (previously these stars had been depicted as a branch of the tree on which grew the Apples of the Hesperides). [162]

Smallwood, p. 87; Ogden 2013b p. 63. Examples include: LIMC Herakles 2553–4, 2560, 2571, 2579, 2581, 2586, 2588, 2595, 2600, 2603–6, 2610–11, 2616, 2621, 2628). During the second quarter of the 5th century BC the capture of Cerberus disappears from Attic vase painting. [141] After the early third century BC, the subject becomes rare everywhere until the Roman period. In Roman art the capture of Cerberus is usually shown together with other labors. Heracles and Cerberus are usually alone, with Heracles leading Cerberus. [142] Cerberus rationalized [ edit ] LIMC Herakles 2621 (Smallwood, pp. 92, 97); Ogden 2013a, p. 108. Cerberus is perhaps being led by Heracles, but only the left arm is preserved. According to Smallwood, the identification as Heracles and Cerberus is "suggested by Dunbabin, taken as certain by Schäfer" (p. 92), and "too little of the fragment is preserved for a secure identification".
