Aphrodite

Aphrodite (from the Greek aphros, foam), the goddess of love among the Greeks; she was fabled to have sprung from the sea-foam, and thus obtained her name. She is supposed to have been identified with the Phoenician Astarte and the Roman Venus, although the original Greek conception of Aphrodite was much purer than the later Venus of Rome.
