Did you
know that fact about Ephesus?
But did you know about the place outside of
Ephesus called garbage heap
(trash heap)?
According to the historical records unwanted
babies - mostly girls -due to the belief to the
Artemis goddess (Artemis was the goddess of
fertility both giving blessings to woman willing
to have a child and also protecting from the
child birth, as every third woman was likely to
die during the child birth) were left in the
isolated area to die. The most healthiest of
them were picked up by the slave traders and
used to be slaves or prostitutes...
