No, Alcmene was not a goddess. She was best known for being the mother of the hero, Heracles. See 'related links' for more information.

No. Hera was the Queen of Heaven, wife of Zeus. Alcmene was the mortal daughter of Electryon, king of Messene, by Anaxo, the daughter of Alcaeus. According to other accounts her mother was called Lysidice or Eurydice. The poet Asius represented Alcmene as a daughter of Amphiaraus and Eriphyle. Alcmene was married to Amphitryon, and mother of Heracles by Zeus, and of Iphicles by Amphitryon.


Who is Hercules' mum?

In Greek Mythology, Heracles was born to Zeus and Alcmene, with Amphityron as his foster father. In Roman Mythology, Hercules was born to Jupiter and Alcmena. His father is definitely the same god in both mythologies and judging by the similarities in the name of his mother, I assume they too are the same mortal.
