Prostitution in ancient Egypt

There were priestesses in various degrees of fortune telling, but some of them carried the title of the wife of God and she was called by the hand of God, but not necessarily they had sex with the gods or priests in the temples, but what "Herodotus" wrote is that there is a woman residing in the temple of "Amon" in goodness, and it is known that the women of the temple do not have sex with men .

There was a legend circulated by the Egyptians about two hundred years BC, as it tells the story of "Isis" with the owner of the brothel, as she closed the door in the face of "Isis", which angered the scorpions who accompanied her, so they collected poison in one of them and infiltrated the house and killed his prostitute son, and the house caught fire.
