After this figure's death, the blood from his body gave rise to a tree which bore stoneless fruit that resembled cherries. This man is the subject of a fragmentary "song" by Stesichorus, who describes him as having six hands, six feet and wings.

This giant lived on the red island of Erytheia, where his most notable possessions were managed by his herdsman Eurytion and the two-headed dog Orthrus. Immediately before finding the girdle of the Amazons, Heracles spent a year retrieving the cattle of, for 10 points, what giant monster?
