Heracles' last labor was to catch Cerberus, the three-headed dog of the Underworld.
This brought him back to the Peloponnese, where an entrance to the Hades could be found at Cape Tanaerum.

Thus Cape Tanaerum, the point at which mainland Greece juts most sharply into the Mediterranean, was at once an important sailor's landmark, a shrine of Poseidon, and the point at which Orpheus and Heracles were said to have entered Hades.
This motif is apparent in the paradoxical festivals of the shadowy sea-deity Leucothea ("white goddess"), celebrated in many cities throughout the Greek world.
