Mythology[]
| “ | Aphrodite's name means "foam-born," and according to mythology, she rose from the sea near Cyprus after Oranos the Titan's severed body parts were hurled into the ocean by Kronos. As the goddess of beauty and passion, Aphrodite engaged in many trysts with mortals, much like her foster father, Zeus. Prominent among these was Aeneas, who would escape the burning city of Troy to eventually found Rome. | ” |
