Meeting Heracles in the Underworld

More spooooky ancient sources: this time, the two most famous descents into the Underworld, a mere 800 or so years apart... Homer's Odyssey, translated by Samuel Butler; Virgil's Aeneid translated by JW Mackail. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content!

This is not a standard narrative story episode, it's a reading of an ancient source, audiobook style. For regular episodes look for any that don't have "Liv Reads..." in the title! For a list of Roman/Latin names and who they were in the Greek, visit: mythsbaby.com/names.
