My Random Mythology Information
Tartarus was a division of the two underworld halves that imprisoned the sons of the earth. Erebus was the second division of the underworld. The dead pass through as soon as they pass away. Archeron was the river of woe, wich was ot the same as Cocytus. Cocytus is the river of grief and sadness. Lamantation was the word for grief and or sadness. Charon was the keeper of souls of sorts and he ferried the souls across to the underworld. Cererus was the three headed 'gate keeper' who guarded the underworld from souls who tried to escape. He would let souls enter, but never leave. The Elysium fields were where the good souls walked after death. Phlegeon was the river of fire. Styx was the rier of unbreakable oath and Lethe, the river of forgetfulness. Tantalus was the man who was punished with hunger and thirst without being able to eat or drink. As was Sisyphus who rolled the rock up the hill for eternity.
