The Ancient Greek letters for Neberius's Name in arrangement.
Cerberus (Greek: Κέρβερος) is the three-headed hound who guards the gates of the Underworld, preventing the dead from leaving and the living from entering without divine sanction. In the Theogony (310-312), Hesiod calls him the "brazen-voiced hound of Hades, fifty-headed" (later traditions settled on three). His parentage is Typhon and Echidna. The three heads have been interpreted as past, present, and future, or as the three states of existence. Only Heracles, Orpheus, and Psyche (among mortals and heroes) passed him and returned. The name Κέρβερος may derive from Proto-Indo-European *ḱerberos ("spotted"), cognate with Sanskrit Śarvarī (a name for the night).

The Goetia lists Naberius (also Cerberus, Nebiros) as the 24th spirit: a Marquis commanding 19 legions, appearing as a black crane or raven. His attributed powers (teaching arts, sciences, and rhetoric; restoring lost dignities) correspond to Cerberus's role as the keeper of all knowledge that passes through the Gates: every soul that descends carries its wisdom with it, and the Guardian receives it all. The Goetia's own notation of "Cerberus" as an alias makes this one of the clearest cases where the demonological tradition preserved the original identity within its own pages.
