Garden of the Hesperides

The Garden of the Hesperides is a mythical garden located in far west of Northern Africa in the Greek mythology.
==History==
The garden was named after its caretakers, the three nymphs called Hesperides. Located in the far west of the world in Northern Africa, the garden produced golden apples, and in order to reach it, one had to pass the Titan Atlas.Assassin's Creed: Odyssey – Hydrea: The Golden Apples of the Hesperides
As part of his twelve tasks, the hero Herakles reached Atlas, and tricked him to fetch some of the apples for himself.
==Influence==
In 2012, Clay Kaczmarek included Peter Paul Rubens' painting of Hercules in the Garden of the Hesperides in a set of puzzles he'd hidden within the Animus for his follower to find. In Clay's puzzle, it was suggested that the golden apples were in fact Apples of Eden.Assassin's Creed II – Glyph 1: In the Beginning
