Hades was a name for both the Underworld and the god who ruled it. The underworld itself was also referred to as Erebus, the Asphodel FieldsElysium or Tartarus- Erebus was the underworld in general. Elysium was a later invention, a paradise for the righteous, the Asphodel Fields were a Greek version of limbo, and Tartarus was an abyss of eternal punishment.
