DescriptionCuevas de Hércules, Cabo Espartel, Marruecos, 2015-12-11, DD 22-24 HDR.JPG |
العربية: مغارة هرقل موقع ذي أهمية أثرية وتاريخية وأسطورية، يقع على بعد 14 كيلومترًا (9 أميال) غرب طنجة برأس سبارطيل، شمال المغرب. المغارة طبيعية جزئيا ومصنوعة جزئيا، حيث قطع البربر العجلات الحجرية من جدرانها (كما تظهر آثار ذلك بشكل واضح في الصورة) وذلك لصنع أحجار الرحى، مما ساهم في توسيع حجم المغارة بشكل كبير. تعود تسمية المغارة إلى الإمبراطور هرقل للاعتقاد أنه نام في المغارة قبل أن يقوم بعمله الحادي عشر، والذي كان حصوله على التفاح الذهبي من حارسات حديقة هيسبيريديس.
Deutsch: Die Herkulesgrotte ist von archäologischer, historischer und mythologischer Bedeutung und befindet sich 14 Kilometer westlich von Tanger bei Kap Spartel im Norden von Marokko. Die Höhle ist zum Teil natürlichen Ursprungs und zum Teil durch Menschenhand entstanden, da die Berber hier Mühlsteine gewannen (wie in dem Bild zu erkennen), wodurch die Höhe wesentlich erweitert wurde. Der Name der Höhle erinnert an Herkules (bzw. Herakles), da dieser nach der Sage in der Höhle übernachtete, bevor er an die Lösung der 11. ihm gestellten Aufgabe (Pflücken der goldenen Äpfel aus dem Garten der Hesperiden) ging.
English: The Caves of Hercules are of archeological, historical and mythological significance and are located 14 kilometres (9 mi) west of Tangier in Cape Spartel, in the North of Morocco. The cave is part natural and part-made, as the Berber people cut stone wheels from its walls (as you can appreciate in the image) to make millstones, expanding the cave considerably. The name is dedicated to Hercules as he is believed to have slept in the cave before doing his 11th labour, which was to get golden apples from the Hesperides Garden.
Español: Las Cuevas de Hércules son un lugar de importancia arqueológica, histórica y mitológica situado a 14 km al oeste de Tánger en Cabo Espartel, al norte de Marruecos. La cueva es en parte natural y en parte artificial, dado que los bereberes obtuvieron ruedas de piedra de sus paredes (tal y como se aprecia en la imagen) para hacer muelas de molinos, expandiendo así la superficie de la cueva. El nombre de la cueva está dedicado a Hércules, pues según la leyenda durmió en ella antes de realizar su undécima tarea, que era obtener manzanas doradas del jardín de las Hespérides.
Українська: Печера Геркулеса на 14 кілометрів на захід від Танжеру, Марокко. Древні бербери вирізали зі стін кам'яні диски щоб робити жорна. Через це печера була значно розширена і виглядає саме так. Існує міф, що Геракл спав в цій печері перед здійсненням його 11-го подвигу - здобуття яблук із саду Гесперид.
Walon : Li Trô d' Ercule a stî po s' pus grande pårt cåvlé dins ene rotche di granite, po-z î saetchî des pires di molén, come on l' voet bén dins l' paroejhe. |

This image was selected as picture of the day on Wikimedia Commons for 14 May 2016. It was captioned as follows: English: The Caves of Hercules, 14 kilometres (9 mi) west of Tangier in Cape Spartel, North Morocco. As the Berber people cut stone wheels from its walls (which is the cause of the pattern visible in the image) to make millstones, the natural cave was extended considerably. There is a myth that Hercules slept in the cave before accomplishing his 11th labour, stealing golden apples from the Hesperides' garden. Other languages:
Čeština: Héraklovy jeskyně, 14 km západně od Tangeru, severní Maroko. Jeskyně se výrazně zvětšily, když berberští domorodci vyřezávali ze stěn kamenná kola pro výrobu mlýnských kamenů (stopy jsou viditelné na snímku). Podle pověsti v jeskyni přespal bájný hrdina Héraklés při plnění svého 11. úkolu - Přinést tři zlatá jablka ze zahrad Hesperidek.

Italiano: Le Grotte di Ercole circa 14 km a occidente di Tangeri in Marocco, le grotte furono create dai Berberi che vi intagliavano ruote per il mulino, ma secondo la leggenda vi avrebbe dormito Ercole prima dell'undicesima fatica (il furto dei pomi d'oro alle Esperidi). Nederlands: De grotten van Hercules met door de Berbers gecreëerde patronen ten westen van de Marokkaanse stad Tanger. Português: Gruta de Hércules, local de importância arqueológica, histórica e mitológica situado a 14 km a oeste de Tânger, no Cabo Espartel, norte de Marrocos. A gruta é natural mas foi transformada pelos berberes, que alargaram as paredes quando cortavam a pedra para fazer mós. O nome da gruta é dedicado a Hércules, que segundo a lenda dormiu nela antes de realizar sua décima primeira tarefa, a de colher as maçãs de ouro do Jardim das Hespérides.
