Document Summary
Dante and virgil get there with the help of a beast, geryod. Geryod, like the leopard has painted skin, the guardian of the fraudulent circle looks normal from the top, but the bottom of his body is painted and he has a long fork tail. Before you enter, the circle is enclosed by giants with chains, the giants rose against their rulers and god in their human life, they serve as a bridge from the circle down to lucifer, mostly mute. He grabs virgil and dante and puts them down into the last circle. Virgil convinces him to do this by saying that dante, who is alive, will clear his name once he goes back to earth. 4 rounds according to the seriousness of sin. Names after cain, who killed his brother. Medieval mindset, violation of prime social function. Named after judas who betrayed jesus with a kiss.
