Entrada al Hades

Source: Rubens

Description

Esta legendaria cueva se creía que era la entrada al Hades desde donde Heracles arrebató a Kerveros o Cerbero (pintado por muchos artistas, como Pieter Paul Rubens - ver imagen). Cerbero, a menudo referido como el sabueso de Hades, es un perro multicéfalo que guarda las puertas del Inframundo para prevenir que los muertos salgan. Generalmente se lo describía como con tres cabezas, una serpiente por cola, y serpientes protruyendo de múltiples partes de su cuerpo. Cerbero es conocido principalmente por su captura a manos de Heracles, uno de los doce trabajos de Heracles.

Debido a que la mitología y la religión moderna están frecuentemente entrelazadas, se construyó una pequeña capilla, la capilla de Aghios Nikolaos, y la iglesia de Aghios Anargyri en cada extremo del desfiladero para contener todos los antiguos espíritus en su interior.
