Etymology[]

Achelon may be a mistranslation of Acheron. In ancient Greek mythology, Acheron was known as the river of woe, and was one of the five rivers of the Greek underworld.

The word sybaritic is an adjective pertaining to a devotion to luxury or sensuous pleasure. The term Sybaritic also pertains to everything related to that of Sybaris and its people.
