Cerberus

Residing in the Underworld, he has an appetite only for the meat of the living, which is perfectly suited to his role. He is responsible for stopping the living who want to enter the realm of the dead and devours those who try to do so; he prevents those who have already crossed the River Styx from returning to the living.

Cerberus is tied up so that he cannot escape and ravage the world. The dead must make an offering to him as they pass. This is done with a honey cake that is placed on the tomb of the deceased so that he can take it with him to the Underworld. It is the same principle with the obolus for Charon the ferryman.
