Katabasis

Are these all the requirements of katabasis? Female Littoral, Crossing water, hero, orphan?

  1. I think it is orphan, goddess or littoral,decent to the underworld, crosses a body of water, matern of a hero (or something weird like that that I cant remember) recrosses a body of water

    I'm not 100% sure of the orphan, and matern of a hero whatever that term is but the others are correct. and oh is divine intervention maybe in there too? or I guess that is what the goddess stands for. anyway hope this helped a bit...although probably not at all!


    p.s I just tried to search it on google just to see if I could find the correct list...and your blog post popped up in the first couple of listings.

  2. I think the use of a special weapon might be on there but not totally sure. Also, what is the matern of a hero?
