"World's oldest profession has the night off," ''Chicago Tribune'', July 10.〕 == Ancient Babylon and Sumer == The Code of Hammurabi contains provisions that addressed inheritance rights of women, including female prostitutes. For example, if a dowry was established by the father for his unmarried daughter, upon his death, her brothers (if she had any) would act on her behalf as her trustee. However, if the woman received the property as a gift from her father, she owned the property outright and could leave the property to whomever she pleased.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= History of Prostitution )〕 In the Ancient Near East along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers there were many shrines and temples or "houses of heaven" dedicated to various deities documented by the Ancient Greek historian Herodotus in ''The Histories''〔Herodotus, ''The Histories'' (1.199 ), tr A.D. Godley (1920)〕 where sacred prostitution was a common practice.〔See, for example, James Frazer (1922), ''The Golden Bough'', 3e, Chapter 31: Adonis in Cyprus〕 It came to an end when the emperor Constantine in the fourth century AD destroyed the goddess temples and replaced them with Christianity.〔Eusebius, ''Life of Constantine'', (3.55 ) and (3.58 )〕
