Summary: Three children wandered out of the desert that day, two girls and a boy. The other was left behind.....
In Classical Greek, Lethe (λήθε; LEE-thee) literally means "forgetfulness" or "concealment". The Greek word for "truth" is a-lethe-ia (αλήθεια), meaning "un- forgetfulness" or "un-concealment".
In Greek mythology, Lethe is one of the several rivers of Hades. Drinking from the river Lethe ("forgetfulness" or "oblivion") caused complete forgetfulness. Some ancient Greeks believed that souls were made to drink from the river before being reincarnated, so they would not remember their past lives.
