Taenarum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Taenarum or Cape Tenaron is where Hercules (Herakles) went to find the entrance to Hades (or Άδης in Greek) to fulfill his last labor of capturing Cerberus. This was also the route that Psyche used to retrieve a bit of Persephone's beauty for Aphrodite.
Tenaron is located in Laconia, Peloponnese, Greece.
