Psi Links to the DELPHIC ORACLE
Oracle Chamber at Delphi
Ancient Greeks who found themselves in a quandary often consulted the oracle at Delphi, whose responses were revered as deep and profound. More than 1,600 years after the oracle was shut down, the source of its power has been uncovered.
History of Delphi
"...the town of Delphi continued its life until the first quarter
of the 7th century AD, despite the decline of the pagan worship and
the ban of the oracle consultation." The home of the famous oracle
was active during Early Roman times.
The Perseus Project
From Tufts University Classics Department,
Perseus contains a massive library of art objects, sites, and buildings. Each has a description of the object and its context, as
well as images. This web site currently publishes over 13,000 pictures! The catalogs currently contain 523 coins, 1420 vases,
366 sculptures, 179 sites, and 381 buildings. Descriptions and images have been produced in collaborations with many
museums, institutions, and scholars. The section on Delphi contains a 'clickable' map of the area that links to
photographs of the sacred sancuary.
