In Greek mytholody, the God of the Underword was Hades (\u0386\u03b4\u03b7\u03c2). His kigdom was dark and never reached by the sun and no one was allowed to go back to the Upper World. Only three men managed to enter Hades\u2019 kingdom and to go back to Earth. Hades\u2019 partner was Percephone, the daughter of goddess Demetra. She was abducted by Hades and leaved six months in the underworld and six months on Earth.<\/p>\n
