Cérbero (em grego clássico: Κέρβερος; romaniz.: Kerberos – trad.: “demónio do poço”; em latim: Cerberus), na mitologia grega, era um monstruoso cão de três cabeças que guardava a entrada do mundo inferior, o reino subterrâneo dos mortos, deixando as almas entrarem, mas jamais saírem e despedaçando os mortais que por lá se aventurassem.
