Do We Know Much About Mavia's Background?
Anden do we know much, if anything, about mavia's background at all? The quick answer, again, is no. We don't really have any sources about her other than the seneary inscription and memories later on by greek and arabic speaking sources. Some of the stories about her posit that she was a slave girl and that she should have seduced her way to the top. But i'm very sceptical about that because these are methods of telling a story which repeat themselves over and over again.
