Oh dear, I didn't expect anyone to start taking those quiz questions seriously! I've changed the heading of this section of the thread since we seem to have departed considerably from the original subject. - I thought Hell was an adaptation of the Greek Hades. Judging from the story of Orpheus I imagine it was more like a musty cave in the ground, on the other hand it was also presumably the abode of Vulcan (or Hephaistos) whence the fire and brimstone.
