The Necromanteion (4th century BCE) was a temple of necromancy devoted to Hades and Persephone close to the ancient town of Ephyra . "Necromanteion" means "Oracle of Death". It is one of the oldest and most important "Oracles" in ancient Greece and the only Oracle of Death. Scientists found descriptions of this site in Herodotus and Homer work.
