description: "Lais of Hyccara was a hetaira (courtesan) of Ancient Greece. She was probably born in Hyccara, Sicily and died in Thessaly. She was a contemporary of another courtesan with the same name, Lais of Corinth. Since ancient authors in their accounts often confused them or did not indicate which they refer to, the two have become inextricably linked."
