Cerberus is meant to portray the image of uncontrolled appetite. In mythology, he was known to devour people who approached hell, and therefore is a glutton himself. However, being a glutton, he must surrender himself to his appetite. His appetite just overtakes him when Dante throws dirt in Cerberus' mouth, and the poets are allowed to enter the circle. Cerberus is an example of how everything must submit to the glutton's appetite, including his soul. This is a dark sin because
