D’Andria told Discovery News he used ancient mythology as his guide to locate the legendary portal to the underworld. “We found the Plutonium by reconstructing the route of a thermal spring. Indeed, Pamukkale' springs, which produce the famous white travertine terraces originate from this cave.”

“Pluto’s Gate” has been documented in the Princeton Encyclopedia of Classical Sites, which noted in its description of ancient Hierapolis, “Adjoining the temple on the SE is the Plutoneion, which constituted the city's chief claim to fame. It was described by Strabo as an orifice in a ridge of the hillside, in front of which was a fenced enclosure filled with thick mist immediately fatal to any who entered.”

The portal to the underworld seems just as bad for your health today. The professor said, “We could see the cave's lethal properties during the excavation. Several birds died as they tried to get close to the warm opening, instantly killed by the carbon dioxide fumes.”

Freakin birds died just getting closed to the entrance because of the toxic gases being admitted......holy crud that's deadly!

[Darthphere]

Well thats cool.

Quite the opposite.

 

[Victarion]

Quite the opposite.

No, its cool. We buy braincrusher a gas mask and send him to investigate it. Maybe he comes back with a demon familiar to help him in his ventures.

Wait for it...

 

[Duke]

Quite the opposite.

For once Darth & I actually agree on something. Does this mean, Hell freezes over???

[Quite]Strabo (64 B.C.- 24 B.C.) wrote, “This space is full of a vapor so misty and dense that one can scarcely see the ground. Any animal that passes inside meets instant death. I threw in sparrows and they immediately breathed their last and fell.”[/quote]

Lmao I can just imagine some dude in a toga chucking birds to their death.

Lowe's has cart boys? They didn't when I worked there.

 

[Ultimatehero]

Yep. And I went through summer hell as one. It also taught me how stupid and inconsiderate some people can be - sometimes a cart somehow wound up all across the street! Why people did that when the parking lot was nearly empty, I have no idea. Sometimes we'd find carts from stores a block away as well.
