Circle Nine: Round One (Caïna) -- Treacherous to Kin Traitors are frozen at various depths in the lake. Mordred and various Italians are found frozen up to their necks for their acts of treahery to members of their own families. Circle Nine: Round Two (Antenora) -- Treacherous to Country Dante accidentally kicks a face sticking out of the ice. Those treacherous to their countries are frozen to a point that they cannot move their necks at all. Dante sees two heads emerging from one hole, one chewing on the brains of the other. These are Archbishop Ruggieri, and Count Ugolino who gnaws on him. The story is told in the next canto. wsu.edu
