In Iphigenia in Tauris of Euripides, the human sacrifice who proves the obedience to the gods to receive the divine favor, must be soaked in water. The Ancient Greek believed that the water drove away human impurity and sins. However this ceremony with the water was only a passive act for sacrifice's body. In Odyssey of Homer, Odysseus takes willingly and often a bath. When he is tossed by the will of gods in the first half of the story, the mysterious power of goddess Atene who protects Odysseus is shown sufficiently at the moment of his bathing. But when he regains a king of Ithaca by his will in the second half of the story, the power of Atene weakens, and the women’s, for example, his wife’s and his nurse’s, brightness appears. This tendency of the progress from the mythic power to the human intellect in the situation of bathing becomes clear after the Ancient Greek age.
