Hercules, a legendary hero in Greek mythology, wielded various weapons throughout his adventures, primarily to combat monstrous foes and perform his famous twelve labors. His most notable weapons included a club made from a giant's olive tree and a bow and arrows, often said to be poisoned. These weapons symbolized his strength and resourcefulness, enabling him to overcome formidable challenges and protect humanity from threats. Additionally, he sometimes employed the use of magical items, such as the Nemean Lion's skin, for added protection and prowess in battle.
The Nemean Lion was slain by Hercules as the first of his Twelve Labors. The lion's hide was impervious to weapons, so Hercules strangled it with his bare hands and used its own claws to skin it.
Hercules captured Cerberus by using only his hands; Hercules couldn't use any weapons because Hades told him that he can only take Cerberus out of the underworld only if he used his own hands. There are no clear descriptions of how Hercules tamed the beast from any Greek or Roman poet.

Hercules brought Cerberus, the three-headed dog, to Eurystheus, the king of Tiryns, as part of his twelfth and final labor. Eurystheus had tasked Hercules with capturing Cerberus from the Underworld and bringing him to the surface without using weapons. This labor demonstrated Hercules' strength and bravery, as well as his ability to confront death itself. After presenting Cerberus, Eurystheus was so terrified that he hid in a large jar.
Roman weapons were used by the Roman army.
In Greek mythology, Hercules came to a mountain and instead of climbing the mountain, he used his club to smash through it. This created two mountains that were named the Pillars of Hercules.
