Description
An account of the resource
This photograph shows the ruins of the Ploutonion, a temple dedicated to the god of the underworld, Hades. Classical beliefs prevented the Greeks from referring to Hades by his proper name, so the alias, "Pluto," meaning "Wealth," was used in its stead. The temple was built into the recesses of the cave where it was believed Persephone descended to and ascended from the underworld every year. In this sense, this small cave at Eleusis was believed to be the entrance to the underworld.
