dbaezner 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2016 Can someone please tell me the Roman name for the underworld. From what little I can find on the net, it's Hades (same as in Greek). Is that correct? I've also seen an article that Romans, like Greeks, believed in the river Styx and the ferryman. Correct? Thanks Dirk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
