Caucasian Eagle
By Jimmy Joe
The Caucasian Eagle was an offspring of Typhon and Echidna.
Zeus had the Titan Prometheus bound to a crag somewhere in the Caucasian mountains. Every day, the giant Caucasian Eagle would come and feed on Prometheus’ liver. Prometheus lived through centuries of torment from the Caucasian Eagle.
However, Prometheus had foretold to the heroine Io that he would be freed from his prison by one of her descendants, Heracles, the greatest hero in the world.
For his eleventh labour, Heracles arrived and killed the Caucasian Eagle by shooting it down with his arrow. Then Heracles broke the chain that had bound Prometheus.
