Great Temple of Aphrodite is a faction unique building belonging to Dardania, in a Total War Saga: Troy, which can be built exclusively in province capitals.
Description[]
The goddess of love, beauty, and sexual pleasure, legend claims Aphrodite took her name from the sea foam, or 'aphros,' from which she was born. Although married to Hephaestus, the lascivious Olympian had trysts with every other male god except Zeus and Hades, and the hero Aeneas was said to be her son. According to myth, she promised Paris the most beautiful woman in the world if he declared her fairer than Hera and Athena. When he did, she gave him Helen, whom the prince of Troy stole away from King Menelaus of Sparta, triggering the decade-long Trojan War.
