Everybody knew them, and therefore you'd find lots of references to them in ordinary writings of all kinds.

I guess being aggressive and having 360° of peripheral vision may be what they were aiming to convey... <br /><br />When it comes to the fading knowledge of mythology, well I guess that depends on how you define mythology, no? There is plenty of knowledge and belief about some mythologies these days, just not the old Greek version.Moniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10736499939969754097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3547067420689722925.post-16282115195636045062013-11-19T08:38:36.493-05:002013-11-19T08:38:36.493-05:00If you look up Cerberus Capital Management on Wiki...If you look up Cerberus Capital Management on Wikipedia, Monique, you will discover that it WAS named after the three-headed dog!

I hate to admit it, as it exposes my lack of knowledge about mythology but the first thing that comes to my mind when I see the term "Cerberus" is Cerberus Capital Management, the big private equity firm.
