In Greek mythology, Charon was the ferryman of the Underworld, who's duty was the ferry the souls of the dead across the Rivers Acheron and Styx. According to Hesiod's Theogony, Charon is considered to be a child of Erebus (Primordial God of Darkness) and Nyx (Primordial Goddess of Night.
River Cocytus is also called the River of Wailing. Meaning, Cocytus is the river of cries and lamentation. For the souls that Charon refused to ferry over because they had not received a proper burial, the river bank of Cocytus would be their wandering grounds. River Cocytus was believed to flow into River Acheron, making it the only river that did not flow directly into the Underworld.
