Greek Twins, sons of the Titans Oceanus
and Theia. They were mischievous, clever thieves,
sometimes depicted as monkeys. The Cercopes teased
the great hero Heracles, who took them captive
and tied them onto a pole that he carried across his
shoulders. Heracles was so disarmed by the jokes and
good humor of the twins that he set them free.
