2397	ENT_APHRODITE	reception_of	ENT_ARA_ALLAT	high	In Herodotus's interpretatio graeca (Histories 3.8), the Greek understanding of Aphrodite Ourania (Heavenly Aphrodite) was identified with the north Arabian goddess Alilat/Al-Lat — one of the earliest documented Greek-Arabian divine equations. This reflects the ancient perception that Aphrodite Ourania and the Arabian great goddess shared the celestial Venus/morning-star domain. The relationship is consistent with the broader Semitic great goddess complex (Astarte, Inanna/Ishtar, Al-Uzza, Al-Lat) all sharing the Venus star identification. SRC_HERODOTUS_HISTORIES 3.8.
