Strabo (c. 64/63 BCE – 24CE) was a Greek geographer, philosopher, and historian.

Strabo famously wrote on Temple of Aphrodite at Korinth, arguing that it contributed greatly to Korinth's wealth,[1] and on the hetaerae, who he said acted as "sacred prostitutes". He was the only source for that piece of information, and it is still debated to this day.[2]
