Most of the rivers of Hades were imagined to be in the Underworld/under the ground; thus Pyriphlegethôn, the god and river of fire; Akherôn, the god and river/lake of pain upon which the god Kharon ferries the dead across, his son Ascalaphus by Orphne/Gorgyra the orchardist of Hades, who bore witness that Persephone had eaten of the pomegranate, he was buried under a rock by Demeter (as, perhaps, a lizard), released by Heracles and than transformed into Hades' bird, the screech owl; Styx the goddess and river of hate upon which the binding oaths of gods are sworn; Lêthê the goddess and river of oblivion beside her waters Hypnos and his children make their home; Kôkytos the god and river of wailing, his daughter Minthe was once lover to Hades.
