Join best-selling author and historian, Adam Alexander Haviaras, as he explores the Sanctuary of Zeus at Ancient Nemea in Greece.

This is a place of myth and legend that was, according to tradition, where Heracles defeated the Nemean Lion in his first Labour.

More importantly, Nemea was the site of the Nemean Games, one of the four Crown Games of Ancient Greece, which were first held as funeral games for the child, Opheltes.
