Temple Prostitution in Corinth
The temple of Aphrodite was so rich that it employed more than a thousand hetairas, whom both men and women had given to the goddess. Many people visited the town on account of them, and thus these hetairas contributed to the riches of the town: for the ship captains frivolously spent their money there, hence the saying: “The voyage to Corinth is not for every man.” —Strabo (1st cent. BCE)
