Aliakai | Hades: The Greek Lord of Death @Aliakai | Uploaded August 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
One of the most mysterious and enigmatic Gods in the Hellenic pantheon is Hades (or Haides), Lord of the Underworld. He had many epithets but not a ton written about Him, and thanks to my monthly Patrons and a request from TheoiPhilos, I've decided to deep dive into Him and His worship in ancient times.
