Why Aeneas go to the underworld?

A prophecy has told Aeneas that he must visit the Cumaean Sibyl (a prehistoric oracular priestess who lived in a cave near modern Naples) and persuade her to escort him into Hell where he will meet his dead father Anchises. Anchises in turn will tell Aeneas secrets about the future of Rome. The actual reason why Aeneas visits the underworld is so that Vergil can give Anchises a prophecy which foretells the future greatness of Rome, and particularly what a wonderful reign the emperor Augustus will have. (Augustus was emperor at the time that the Aeneid was composed).
