Disdaining the more philosophic inclinations of his father, Commodus was extremely proud of his physical prowess. He ordered many statues to be made showing him dressed as Hercules with a lion's hide and a club. He thought of himself as the reincarnation of Hercules, frequently emulating the legendary hero's feats by appearing in the arena to fight a variety of wild animals.
