Megalostrata

Megalostrata was a female Spartan poet known only from a fragment of the lyric poet Alcman, which is cited in Athenaeus' Deipnosophistae. Alcman describes her as a "golden-haired maiden enjoying the gift of the Muses". None of her works survive. According to Athenaeus, Megalostrata was the lover of Alcman, who loved her because of her conversational skills.
