According to the myths, while the troubles in Mariandynia were going on, 1300 years ago, the demigod Heracles, who had participated in the Greeks' well-known journey of the Argonauts, visited here with a group of warriors. According to Greek mythology, the mouth of Hell is at Mariandynia. Heracles is said to have entered the Cave of the Mouth of Hell at what is now called Ayazma and, with the help of Athena and Hermes, to have caught the famous three-headed Hell Dog, Cerberos (sometimes called Cerberus), and rendered him powerless.
