Hermes' Kerukeion
Hermes' Kerukeion was a legendary spear obtained by the misthios Kassandra during the Peloponnesian War.
Believed to have been the kerukeion given by the god Apollo to Hermes, the god of trade, trickery and sports in Greek mythology, Kassandra was given the spear after helping Hippokrates free a group of slaves held captive at the Melanippos' Camp.[1]
