Xenia is an ancient Greek belief/ concept of extending hospitality to others, especially strangers. It is this belief that will hold many respectable relationships in Greek culture and even still practiced by some people in the modern world.

In both the Greek culture and the book "The Odyssey" by Homer, the concept of Xenia is presented or practiced. The question is asking which is not true of this concept, so the concept that is not true will be that Xenia is based on religious obligation and not friendship. This is false because, Xenia is based on both religious and friendship obligations, not just one alone. Xenia allows people to be hospitable to one another which can continue for generations, thus, merging with the friendship obligation.
