Delphi 006 * If you look carefully there is a goat in the middle there (black and white). This huge outcropping towers over the Castellian Fountain, a spring that was used for purification and other rites before entering the site of Delphi proper. * 1600 x 1200 * (932KB)

Delphi 007 * Modern day water channel for the Castellian Spring. * 1600 x 1200 * (684KB)

Delphi 008 * First look of the grounds of Delphi. The columns above are from the Temple to Apollo. * 1600 x 1200 * (695KB)

Delphi 009 * Now looking down on that same temple. * 1600 x 1200 * (678KB)

Delphi 010 * Delphi's theater. Because the Pythia (Priestess of Delphi) only gave oracles one day a month there was often a 'backlog' of oracles. Delphi in turn developed a full complement of entertainment and athletic facilities, including this theather, a stadium, baths, and a gymnasium. Visitors didn't mind waiting I imagine -the multitude of sacrifices being performed (one needed to sacrifice to even see if an oracle could be taken on a certain day) would have provided a lot of food. * 1600 x 1200 * (779KB)
