Summary
| Description |
Peribolos wall and small temple with cella and pronaos opening east. Sanctuary of Pluto (Hades), god of the Underworld, who abducted Persephone. Situated to the west of the Small Propylaea. This area of the cavern recalls the entrance to Hades: it was associated with the abduction of Persephone by Pluto in the autumn and her ascent to earth again in the spring. The myth is connected with the fructification of the earth after the sowing of the seed, which was regarded as Demeter's gift to the human race. The temple of Pluto is Archaic in date but was remodeled on many occasions from the fourth century BC down to Roman times. |
