In Greek mythology, Cottytus or Cotys was a goddess, originally worshipped Thrace and later worshipped heavily in Athens. She was the goddess of immodesty, hedonism and debauchery. Her priests were called baptes from the Greek verb meaning "to wash". The baptes practiced 'obscene' ceremonies at night; they included orgies so hedonistic even Cottytus herself was said to be disgusted.
