As a mythology expert, I can tell you that Hercules, also known as Heracles in Greek mythology, is considered a demigod. He was the son of Zeus, the king of the gods, and a mortal woman named Alcmene. The term "demigod" refers to a being who is part god and part human, and in Hercules' case, his divine lineage came from his father, Zeus.

According to the ancient Greeks, the demigod Heracles (or Hercules, as the Romans called him) was the son of a mortal woman named Alcmene and the supreme god Zeus. Zeus' lawful wife Hera hated the child born out of wedlock, and sent two snakes to kill the baby.
