386      <p>APHRODI&prime;TE (Aphrodit&ecirc;), one of the great Olympian divinities, was, according to the popular and
387        poetical notions of the Greeks, the goddess of love and beauty. Some traditions stated that she had sprung from
388        the foam (aphros) of the sea, which had gathered around the mutilated parts of Uranus, that had been thrown into
389        the sea by Kronos after he had unmanned his father. (Hesiod. <em>Theog.</em> 190; compare Anadyomene.) With the
390        exception of the Homeric hymn on Aphrodite there is no trace of this legend in Homer, and according to him
391        Aphrodite is the daughter of Zeus and Dione. (<em>Il.</em> v. 370, &amp;c., xx. 105.) Later traditions call her
392        a daughter of Kronos and Euonyme, or of Uranus and Hemera. (Cic. <em>De Nat. Deor.</em> iii. 23; Natal. Com. iv.
393        13.)</p>
394      <p>According to Hesiod and the Homeric hymn on Aphrodite, the goddess after rising from the foam first approached
395        the island of Cythera, and thence went to Cyprus, and as she was walking on the sea-coast flowers sprang up
396        under her feet, and Eros and Himeros accompanied her to the assembly of the other great gods, all of whom were
397        struck with admiration and love when she appeared, and her surpassing beauty made every one desire to have her
398        for his wife.</p>
399      <p>According to the cosmogonic views of the nature of Aphrodite, she was the personification of the generative
400        powers of nature, and the mother of all living beings. A trace of this notion seems to be contained in the
401        tradition that in the contest of Typhon with the gods, Aphrodite metamorphosed herself into a fish, which animal
402        was considered to possess the greatest generative powers. (Ov. <em>Met.</em> v. 318, &amp;c.; comp. Hygin.
403        <em>Poet. Astr.</em> 30.) But according to the popular belief of the Greeks and their poetical descriptions, she
404        was the goddess of love, who excited this passion in the hearts of gods and men, and by this power ruled over
405        all the living creation. (Hom. <em>Hymn. in Ven.</em> ; Lucret. 15, &amp;c.)</p>
406      <p>Ancient mythology furnishes numerous instances in which Aphrodite punished those who neglected her worship or
407        despised her power, as well as others in which she favoured and protected those who did homage to her and
408        recognized her sway. Love and beauty are ideas essentially connected, and Aphrodite was therefore also the
409        goddess of beauty and gracefulness. In these points she surpassed all other goddesses, and she received the
410        prize of beauty from Paris; she had further the power of granting beauty and invincible charms to others. Youth
411        is the herald, and Peitho, the Horae, and Charites, the attendants and companions of Aphrodite. (Pind.
412        <em>New.</em> viii. 1, &amp;c.) Marriages are called by Zeus her work and the things about which she ought to
413        busy herself. (Hom. <em>Il.</em> v. 429; comp. <em>Od.</em> xx. 74; Pind. <em>Pyth.</em> ix. 16, &amp;c.) As she
414        herself had sprung from the sea, she is represented by later writers as having some influence upon the sea
415        (Virg. <em>Aen.</em> viii. 800; Ov. <em>Heroid.</em> xv. 213; comp. Paus. ii. 34. &sect; 11.) </p>
416      <p>During the Trojan war, Aphrodite, the mother of Aeneas, who had been declared the most beautiful of all the
417        goddesses by a Trojan prince, naturally sided with the Trojans. She saved Paris from his contest with Menelaus
418        (<em>Il.</em> iii. 380), but when she endeavoured to rescue her darling Aeneas from the fight, she was pursued
419        by Diomedes, who wounded her in her hand. In her fright she abandoned her son, and was carried by Iris in the
420        chariot of Ares to Olympus, where she complained of her misfortune to her mother Dione, but was laughed at by
421        Hera and Athena. (<em>Il.</em> v. 311, &amp;c.) She also protected the body of Hector, and anointed it with
422        ambrosia. (<em>Il.</em> xxiii. 185.)</p>
423      <p>According to the most common accounts of the ancients, Aphrodite was married to Hephaestus (<em>Odyss.</em>
424        viii. 270), who, however, is said in the Iliad (viii. 383) to have married Charis. Her faithlessness to
425        Hephaestus in her amour with Ares, and the manner in which she was caught by the ingenuity of her husband, are
426        beautifully described in the Odyssey. (viii. 266, &amp;c.) By Ares she became the mother of Phobos, Deimos,
427        Harmonia, and, according to later traditions, of Eros and Anteros also. (Hesiod. <em>Theog.</em> 934, &amp;c.,
428        <em>Scut. Herc.</em> 195; Hom. <em>Il.</em> xiii. 299, iv. 440; Schol. <em>ad Apollon. Rhod.</em> iii. 26; Cic.
429        <em>De Nat. Deor.</em> iii. 23.)</p>
430      <p>But Ares was not the only god whom Aphrodite favoured; Dionysus, Hermes, and Poseidon likewise enjoyed her
431        charms. By the first she was, according to some traditions, the mother of Priapus (Schol. <em>ad Apollon.
432          Rhod.</em> i. 933) and Bacchus (Hesych. <em>s. v. Bakchou Di&ocirc;n&ecirc;s</em>), by the second of
433        Hermaphroditus (Ov. <em>Met.</em> iv. 289, &amp;c.; Diod. iv. 6; Lucian, <em>Dial. Deor.</em> xv. 2), and by
434        Poseidon she had two children, Rhodos and Herophilus. (Schol. <em>ad Pind. Pyth.</em> viii. 24.)</p>
435      <p>As Aphrodite so often kindled in the hearts of the gods a love for mortals, Zeus at last resolved to make her
436        pay for her wanton sport by inspiring her too with love for a mortal man. This was accomplished, and Aphrodite
437        conceived an invincible passion for Anchises, by whom she became the mother of Aeneas and Lyrus.</p>
438      <p>Respecting her connexions with other mortals see Adonis and Butes. The ancient story ran thus : Smyrna had
439        neglected the worship of Aphrodite, and was punished by the goddess with an unnatural love for her father. With
440        the assistance of her nurse she contrived to share her father's bed without being known to him. When he
441        discovered the crime he wished to kill her; but she fled, and on being nearly overtaken, prayed to the gods to
442        make her invisible. They were moved to pity and changed her into a tree called smurna. After the lapse of nine
443        months the tree burst, and Adonis was born. Aphrodite was so much charmed with the beauty of the infant, that
444        she concealed it in a chest which she entrusted to Persephone; but when the latter discovered the treasure she
445        had in her keeping, she refused to give it up. The case was brought before Zeus, who decided the dispute by
446        declaring that during four months of every year Adonis should be left to himself, during four months he should
447        belong to Persephone, and during the remaining four to Aphrodite. Adonis however preferring to live with
448        Aphrodite, also spent with her the four months over which he had controul. Afterwards Adonis died of a wound
449        which he received from a boar during the chase. Thus far the story of Adonis was related by Panyasis.</p>
450      <p>Later writers furnish various alterations and additions to it. According to Hyginus (<em>Fab.</em> 58, 164,
451        251, 271), Smyrna was punished with the love for her father, because her mother Cenchreis had provoked the anger
452        of Aphrodite by extolling the beauty of her daughter above that of the goddess. Smyrna after the discovery of
453        her crime fled into a forest, where she was changed into a tree from which Adonis came forth, when her father
454        split it with his sword. The dispute between Aphrodite and Persephone was according to some accounts settled by
455        Calliope, whom Zeus appointed as mediator between them. (Hygin. <em>Poet. Astron.</em> ii. 7.) Ovid
456        (<em>Met.</em> x. 300, &amp;c.) adds the following features: Myrrha's love of her father was excited by the
457        furies; Lucina assisted her when she gave birth to Adonis, and the Naiads anointed him with the tears of his
458        mother, <em>i. e.</em> with the fluid which trickled from the tree. Adonis grew up a most beautiful youth, and
459        Venus loved him and shared with him the pleasures of the chase, though she always cautioned him against the wild
460        beasts. At last he wounded a boar which killed him in its fury.</p>
461      <p>According to some traditions Ares (Mars), or, according to others, Apollo assumed the form of a boar and thus
462        killed Adonis. (Serv. <em>ad Virg. Ecl.</em> x. 18; Ptolem. Hephaest. i. p. 306, ed. Gale.) A third story
463        related that Dionysus carried off Adonis. (Phanocles <em>ap. Plut. Sumpos.</em> iv. 5.) When Aphrodite was
464        informed of her beloved being wounded, she hastened to the spot and sprinkled nectar into his blood, from which
465        immediately flowers sprang up. Various other modifications of the story may be read in Hyginus (<em>Poet.
466          Astron.</em> ii. 7), Theocritus (<em>Idyll.</em> xv.), Bion (<em>Idyll.</em> i.), and in the scholiast on
467        Lycophron. (839, &amp;c.) From the double marriage of Aphrodite with Ares and Adonis sprang Priapus. (Schol.
468        <em>ad Apollon. Rhod.</em> i. 9, 32.) Besides him Golgos and Beroe are likewise called children. of Adonis and
469        Aphrodite. (Schol. <em>ad Theocrit.</em> xv. 100; Nonn. <em>Dionys.</em> xli 155.) On his death Adonis was
470        obliged to descend into the lower world, but he was allowed to spend six months out of every year with his
471        beloved Aphrodite in the upper world. (<em>Orph. hymn.</em> 55. 10.)</p>
472      <p>Aphrodite possessed a magic girdle which had the power of inspiring love and desire for those who wore it;
473        hence it was borrowed by Hera when she wished to stimulate the love of Zeus. (Hom. <em>Il.</em> xiv. 214,
474        &amp;c.) The arrow is also sometimes mentioned as one of her attributes. (Plnd. <em>Pyth.</em> iv. 380;
475        Theocrit. xi. 16.) In the vegetable kingdom the myrtle, rose, apple, poppy, and others, were sacred to her. (Ov.
476        <em>Fast.</em> iv. 15. 143; Bion, <em>Idyll.</em> i. 64; Schol. <em>ad Aristoph. Nub.</em> 993; Paus. ii. 10.
477        &sect; 4; Phornut. 23.)</p>
478      <p>The animals sacred to her, which are often mentioned as drawing her chariot or serving as her messengers, are
479        the sparrow, the dove, the swan, the swallow, and a bird called 
479iynx. (Sappho, <em>in Ven.</em> 10; Athen. ix.
480        p. 395; Horat. <em>Carm.</em> iv. 1. 10; Aelian, <em>Hist. An.</em> x. 34; Pind. <em>Pyth. l. c.</em>) As
481        Aphrodite Urania the tortoise, the symbol of domestic modesty and chastity, and as Aphrodite Pandemos the ram
482        was sacred to her. [Urania; Pandemos.] When she was represented as the victorious goddess, she had the
483        attributes of Ares, a helmet, a shield, a sword : or a lance, and an image of Victory in one hand. The planet
484        Venus and the spring-month of April were likewise sacred to her. (Cie. <em>de Nat. Deor.</em> iii. 20; Ov.
485        <em>Fast.</em> iv. 90.)</p>
486      <p>All the surnames and epithets given to Aphrodite are derived from places of her worship, from events connected
487        with the legends about her, or have reference to her character and her influence upon man, or are descriptive of
488        her extraordinary beauty and charms. All her surnames are explained in separate articles.</p>
489      <p>The principal places of her worship in Greece were the islands of Cyprus and Cythera. At Cnidus in Caria she
490        had three temples, one of which contained her renowned statue by Praxiteles. Mount Ida in Troas was an ancient
491        place of her worship, and among the other places we may mention particularly the island of Cos, the towns of
492        Abydos, Athens, Thespiae, Megara, Sparta, Sicyon, Corinth, and Eryx in Sicily. The sacrifices offered to her
493        consisted mostly of incense and garlands of flowers (Virg. <em>Aen.</em> i. 416; Tacit. <em>Hist.</em> ii. 3),
494        but in some places animals, such as pigs, goats, young cows, hares, and others, were sacrificed to her. In some
495        places, as at Corinth, great numbers of females belonged to her, who prostituted themselves in her service, and
496        bore the name of hierodouloi. (<em>Dict.of Ant. s. v. Hetairai</em>.) Respecting the festivals of Aphrodite see
497        <em>Dict. of Ant. s.v. Ad&ocirc;nia, Anag&ocirc;gia, Aphrodisia, Katag&ocirc;gia</em>.</p>
498      <p>The worship of Aphrodite was undoubtedly of eastern origin, and probably introduced from Syria to the islands
499        of Cyprus, Cythera, and others, from whence it spread all over Greece. It is said to have been brought into
500        Syria from Assyria. (Paus. i. 14. &sect; 6.) Aphrodite appears to have been originally identical with Astarte,
501        called by the Hebrews Ashtoreth, and her connexion with Adonis clearly points to Syria. But with the exception
502        of Corinth, where the worship of Aphrodite had eminently an Asiatic character, the whole worship of this goddess
503        and all the ideas concerning her nature and character are so entirely Greek, that its introduction into Greece
504        must be assigned to the very earliest periods. The elements were derived from the East, but the peculiar
505        development of it belongs to Greece. The Roman goddess Venus was identified with the Greek Aphrodite.</p>
506      <p>Aphrodite, the ideal of female graec and beauty, frequently engaged the talents and genius of the ancient
507        artists. The most celebrated representations of her were those of Cos and Cnidus. Those which are still extant
508        are divided by archaeologists into several classes, accordingly as the goddess is represented in a standing
509        position and naked, as the Medicean Venus, or bathing, or half naked, or dressed in a tunic, or as the
510        victorious goddess in arms, as she was represented in the temples of Cythera, Sparta, and Corinth. (Paus. iii.
511        23. &sect; 1, ii. 5. &sect; 1, iii. 15. &sect; 10.) </p>

530          :</span><br>
531        &quot;Moisa (Muse), tell me the deeds of golden Aphrodite Kypria (Cyprian), who stirs up sweet passion in the
532        gods and subdues the tribes of mortal men and birds that fly in air and all the many creatures that the dry land
533        rears, and all the sea: all these love the deeds of rich-crowned Kythereia. [The story of the love of Aphrodite
534        and Ankhises follows.] . . .<br>
535        Hail, goddess, queen of well-builded Kypros (Cyprus)! With you have I begun; now I will turn me to another
536        hymn.&quot;</p>
537      <p><span class="quote-greek">Homeric Hymn 6 to Aphrodite :</span><br>
538        &quot;I will sing of stately Aphrodite, gold-crowned and beautiful, whose dominion is the walled cities of all
539        sea-set Kypros (Cyprus). There the moist breath of Zephyros the western wind wafted her over the waves of the
540        loud-moaning sea in soft foam, ad there the gold-filleted Horai (Horae, Seasons) welcomed her joyously. [The
541        story of the birth of Aphrodite follows.] . . .<br>
542        Hail, sweetly-winning, coy-eyed goddess! Grant that I may gain the victory in this contest, and order you my

547        well-built Salamis and sea-girt Kypros; grant me a cheerful song. And now I will remember you and another song

552To Aphrodite. Ourania (Urania) (Heavenly), illustrious, laughter-loving (<em>philommeideia</em>) queen,
553        sea-born (<em>pontogenes</em>), night-loving (<em>philopannyx</em>), of awful mien; crafty, from whom Ananke
554        (Necessity) first came, producing, nightly, all-connecting dame. 'Tis thine the world with harmony to join, for
555        all things spring from thee, O power divine. The triple Moirai (Fates) are ruled by thy decree, and all
556        productions yield alike to thee: whatever the heavens, encircling all, contain, earth fruit-producing, and the
557        stormy main, thy sway confesses, and obeys thy nod, awful attendant of Bakkhos [Dionysos] God. Goddess of
558        marriage, charming to the sight, mother of the Erotes (Loves), whom banquetings delight; source of Peitho
559        (Persuasion), secret, favouring queen, illustrious born, apparent and unseen; spousal Lukaina, and to men
560        inclined, prolific, most-desired, life-giving, kind. Great sceptre-bearer of the Gods, 'tis thine mortals in
561        necessary bands to join; and every tribe of savage monsters dire in magic chains to bind through mad desire.
562        Come, Kyprogenes (Cyprus-Born), and to my prayer incline, whether exalted in the heavens you shine, or pleased
563        in odorous Syria to preside, or over the Aigyptian (Egyptian) plains they care to guide, fashioned of gold; and
564        near its sacred flood, fertile and famed, to fix they blest abode; or if rejoicing in the azure shores, near
565        where the sea with foaming billows roars, the circling choirs of mortals thy delight, or beauteous Nymphai
566        (Nymphs) with eyes cerulean bright, pleased by the sandy banks renowned of old, to drive thy rapid two-yoked car
567        of gold; or if in Kypros (Cyprus) thy famed mother fair, where Nymphai unmarried praise thee every year, the
568        loveliest Nymphai, who in the chorus join, Adonis pure to sing, and thee divine. Come, all-attractive, to my
569        prayer inclined, for thee I call, with holy, reverent mind.&quot;</p>

578      <p>Classical literature offers only a few, brief descriptions of the physical characteristics of the gods.</p>
579      <p><span class="quote-greek">Homer, Iliad 3. 396 ff (trans. Lattimore) (Greek epic C8th B.C.) :</span><br>
580        &quot;She [Helene of Troy] recognized the round, sweet throat of the goddess [Aphrodite] and her desirable
581        breasts and her eyes that were full of shining.&quot;</p>
582      <p><span class="quote-greek">Stasinus of Cyprus or Hegesias of Aegina, Cypria Fragment 6 (from Athenaeus 15. 682)
583          (trans. Evelyn-White) (Greek epic C7th or 6th B.C.) :</span><br>
584        &quot;She [Aphrodite] clothed herself with garments which the Kharites (Charites, Graces) and Horai (Hours) had
585        made for her and dyed in flowers of spring--such flowers as the Horai (Horae, Seasons) wear--in crocus and
586        hyacinth and flourishing violet and the rose's lovely bloom, so sweet and delicious, and heavenly buds, the
587        flowers of the narcissus and lily. In such perfumed garments is Aphrodite clothed at all seasons.&quot;</p>
588      <p><span class="quote-greek">Homeric Hymn 5 to Aphrodite 78 ff (trans. Evelyn-White) (Greek epic C7th to 4th B.C.)
589          :</span><br>
590        &quot;Aphrodite, the daughter of Zeus stood before him [Ankhises (Anchises)], being like a pure maiden in height
591        and mien, that he should not be frightened when he took heed of her with his eyes. Now when Ankhises saw her, he
592        marked her well and wondered at her mien and height and shining garments. For she was clad in a robe out-shining
593        the brightness of fire, a splendid robe of gold, enriched with all manner of needlework, which shimmered like
594        the moon over her tender breasts, a marvel to see. Also she wore twisted brooches and shining earrings in the
595        form of flowers; and round her soft throat were lovely necklaces . . .<br>
596        [later she revealed her true divine height and mien] and her head reached to the well-hewn roof-tree; from her
597        cheeks shone unearthly beauty such as belongs to rich-crowned Kythereia (Cytherea). . . [and] when he [Ankhises]
598        saw the neck and lovely eyes of Aphrodite, he was afraid and turned his eyes aside another way, hiding his
599        comely face with his cloak.&quot;</p>
600      <p><span class="quote-greek">Homeric Hymn 6 to Aphrodite 6 ff :</span><br>
601        &quot;The Horai (Horae, Seasons) clothed her [Aphrodite] with heavenly garments: on her head they put a fine,
602        well-wrought crown of gold, and in her pierced ears they hung ornaments of orichalc and precious gold, and
603        adorned her with golden necklaces over her soft neck and snow-white breasts, jewels which the gold-filleted
604        Horai wear themselves.&quot;</p>
605      <p><span class="quote-greek">Philostratus the Younger, Imagines 8 (trans. Fairbanks) (Greek rhetorician C3rd A.D.)
606          :</span><br>
607        &quot;[From a description of a Greek painting:] Three goddesses standing near them--they need no interpreter to
608        tell who they are . . . the second one [Aphrodite] even in the painting shows the 'laughter-loving'
609        (<em>philomeides</em>) disposition caused by the magic of her girdle.&quot;</p>
610      <p><span class="quote-greek">Orphic Hymn 57 to Chthonian Hermes (trans. Taylor) (Greek hymns C3rd B.C. to 2nd
611          A.D.) :</span><br>
612        &quot;Celestial Aphrodite, Paphian queen, dark-eyelashed Goddess, of a lovely mien.&quot;</p>

614          :</span><br>
615        &quot;[From a description of an ancient Greek play portraying the Judgement of Paris:] After them a third girl
616        entered, her beauty visibly unsurpassed. Her charming, ambrosia-like complexion intimated that she represented
617        the earlier Venus [Aphrodite] when that goddess was still a maiden. She vau
617nted her unblemished beauty by
618        appearing naked and unclothed except for a thin silken garment veiling her entrancing lower parts. An
619        inquisitive gust of air would at one moment with quite lubricous affection blow this garment aside, so that when
620        wafted away it revealed her virgin bloom; at another moment it would wantonly breathe directly upon it, clinging
621        tightly and vividly outlining the pleasurable prospect of her lower limbs. The goddess's appearance offered
622        contrasting colours to the eye, for her body was dazzling white, intimating her descent from heaven and her robe
623        was dark blue, denoting her emergence from the sea . . .<br>
624        Each maiden representing a goddess was accompanied by her own escort . . . Venus [Aphrodite] was surrounded by a
625        throng of the happiest children; you would have sworn that those little boys whose skins were smooth and
626        milk-white were genuine Cupides [Erotes] who had just flown in from sky or sea. They looked just he part with
627        their tiny wings, miniature arrows, and the rest of their get-up, as with gleaming torches they lit the way for
628        their mistress as though she were en route to a wedding-banquet. Next floated in charming children, unmarried
629        girls, representing on one side the Gratiae [Charites, Graces] at their most graceful, and on the other the
630        Horae [Horai] in all their beauty. They were appeasing the goddess by strewing wreaths and single blossoms
631        before her, and they formed a most elegant chorus-line as they sought to please the Mistress of pleasures with
632        the foliage of spring. The flutes with their many stops were now rendering in sweet harmony melodies in the
633        Lydian mode. As they affectingly softened the hearts of onlookers, Venus [Aphrodite] still more affectingly
634        began to gently stir herself; with gradual, lingering steps, restrained swaying of the hips, and slow
635        inclination of the head she began to advance, her refined movements matching the soft wounds of the flutes.
636        Occasionally her eyes alone would dance, as at one moment she gently lowered her lids, and at another
637        imperiously signalled with threatening glances.&quot;</p>
638      <p><span class="quote-latin">Apuleius, The Golden Ass 2. 8 ff : </span><br>
639        &quot;Venus [Aphrodite] . . . wearing that belt of hers around her waist, diffusing the scent of cinnamon and
