Embrace the Mythology:

Charon, the son of Erebus and Nyx (Darkness and Night), ferried the souls of the deceased across the River Styx, the boundary between the world of the living and the underworld ruled by Hades.  He demanded an obolus (a small coin) for his passage, which was traditionally placed in the mouth of the deceased.
