3. What Greek goddess was the god of the sewers?

Explanation

Cloacina is the correct answer because she was a Roman goddess associated with the sewers and sanitation.

Her name is derived from the Latin word "cloaca," which means sewer or drain. While there were various Greek goddesses associated with different aspects of life, such as Nemesis (goddess of retribution) and Aphrodite (goddess of love), neither of them were specifically associated with sewers.
