The name Avernus derives from the Greek άορνος (without birds), in fact it is said that this absence was due to the fact that the waters of the lake exhaled particular gases that did not allow the birds to live. According to the Greek and then Roman religion, it was an access to the Underworld, kingdom of the god Pluto: for this reason, the Roman underworld (the Greek Hades) is also called Avernus and it is no coincidence that mythology recognizes it as the gateway to the afterlife. , as well as the earthly abode of the fallen angel Lucifer. Lake Averno lies within an extinct volcanic crater, born 4,000 years ago.
