This paper analyses two instances of the outstanding role of women, either as goddesses or as mortals, in hospitality relations in the context of the Odyssey. the cases of Athena and Arete, Alcinous' wife. Possible epigraphic parallels from the 2nd millennium BC (Mycenaean and Near Eastern Tablets) and the 1st millennium BC (Greek commercial letters coming from the North Pontic colonies) are also introduced and discussed.
