Ancient Greek Prositutes Advertising in Prague

So, some of you guys know I play in a Mage : the Awakening game set in Prague. Some of you play in it. Some of you will also know that one of the ladies on my flist is fd_midori, a well known sex educator and fetish photographer. Anyone who follows her will know she's currently shooting and holidaying in Prague.

So, did you know they had a Sex Machine Museum in Prague? Now you do. Go have a look at it (pic heavy, Warning : includes fetish photography, kitteh pr0n, pictures of Prague, and people having fun!)

However the thing that really made me want to post was that adrexia was recently talking about whether one would like to be a wife or a hetaira, and I know there are several classics scholars on my flist also.

So, it seems the sex machine museum in Prague has ancient greek sandals that reportedly belonged to a prostitute, which have the words "follow me" engraved in reverse on the sole, so that as she walked through the mud and dust it would print them on the ground , providing both advertising and a locating device! I don't know how true that is, or how authentic the items are, but I'm impressed at the marketting savvy if it is !
