    Description

    PHOENICIA, Akko-Ptolemais. Salonina. Augusta, AD 254-268.
    Laureate and draped bust right / Aphrodite, nude but covering breasts and groin with hands, standing facing within shrine; at feet to left, griffin seated left; winged caduceus at feet to right.
    Proclus son of Plospos asked Rabban Gamliel in Acre who was bathing in Aphrodite's bath, told him it is written in your Torah "and nothing will stick in your hand from the boycott" Why do you bathe in Aphrodite's bath?
    Told him "no one answers in the bath"
    And when he came out he said to him 'I did not come to her border, she came to my border. They do not say that a bath is made for an ornamental aphrodisiac, but they say: an aphrodite becomes a bath for an ornament. "
    Mishnah, foreign work c, d.
