the secret chamber under the oracle...
The Necromandio near Ammoudia, north of Nicopolis, is where the living were said to be able to communicate with the dead. According to mythology, where the river emerges from the narrows near Glyki was where the souls of dead dwelled. The river was the channel over which Charon (Death) carried the souls of the dead into the realm of Hades, located in the depths of Lake Acheron.
The Necromandia was built on top of a cave on the northwestern shore of the lake. This oracle was visited by numerous pilgrims, who were placed on a diet of beans and lupins for a few days to prepare them for communication with their beloved deceased ones in the sacred crypt. Remains of a crane device thought to have been used to lower figures of the dead into the chamber have been found. Also the walls of the crypt are over three meters (10 feet) thick, making it possible to disguise secret passages – it appears there was a bit of ancient jiggery-pokery.
