Editing Nemean lion (section)

==Parents==
[[Hesiod]] has the Nemean lion as the offspring of [[Orthus]] and an ambiguous "she", often understood as probably referring to the Chimera, or possibly to [[Echidna (mythology)|Echidna]] or even [[Ceto]].<ref>The referent of "she" at [[Hesiod]], ''Theogony'' [https://www.loebclassics.com/view/hesiod-theogony/2018/pb_LCL057.29.xml 326] is uncertain, see Clay, [https://books.google.com/books?id=2etBN0w0NGUC&pg=PA159 pp. 159&ndash;160, with n. 34]; Most, [https://www.loebclassics.com/view/hesiod-theogony/2018/pb_LCL057.29.xml p. 29 n. 20] ("Probably Chimaera"); Hard, [https://books.google.com/books?id=r1Y3xZWVlnIC&pg=PA63 p. 63] ("Chimaira (or conceivably with his mother Echidna)"); Gantz, p. 23 ("[Chimera] ... or just possibly Echidna"); Caldwell, p. 47 lines 326 ("either Echidna or Chimaira"); West 1966, p. 356 line 326 '''ἡ δ' ἄρα''' ("much more likely ... Chimaera" than Echidna).</ref> According to Hesiod, the lion was raised by [[Hera]] and sent to terrorise the hills of Nemea.<ref>[[Hesiod]], ''[[Theogony]]'' [https://www.loebclassics.com/view/hesiod-theogony/2018/pb_LCL057.29.xml 327–329]</ref> According to [[Bibliotheca (Pseudo-Apollodorus)|Apollodorus]],<ref name="Apollod 2.5.1">[[Bibliotheca (Pseudo-Apollodorus)|Apollodorus]], 2.5.1</ref> he was the offspring of [[Typhon]]. In another tradition, told by [[Claudius Aelianus|Aelian]] (citing Epimenides) and [[Gaius Julius Hyginus|Hyginus]], the lion was "sprung from" the moon-goddess [[Selene]], who threw him from the Moon at Hera's request.<ref>Hard, [https://books.google.com/books?id=r1Y3xZWVlnIC&pg=PA256 p. 256]; [[Claudius Aelianus|Aelian]], [http://www.attalus.org/translate/animals12.html 12.7]; [[Gaius Julius Hyginus|Hyginus]], ''[[Fabulae]]'' [http://www.hs-augsburg.de/~harsch/Chronologia/Lspost02/Hyginus/hyg_fabu.html#c30 30]</ref>
