• Cover photo description:
• Delphi /ˈdÉ›lfaɪ, ˈdÉ›lfi/; Greek: Δελφοί [ðelˈfi],[a] in legend previously called Pytho Πυθώ, in ancient times was a sacred precinct that served as the seat of Pythia, the major oracle who was consulted about important decisions throughout the ancient classical world. The oracle was international in character and also fostered sentiments of Greek nationality, even though the nation of Greece was centuries away from realization. The ancient Greeks considered the centre of the world to be in Delphi, marked by the stone monument known as the omphalos navel. The sacred precinct was in the region of Phocis, but its management had been taken away from the Phocians, who were trying to extort money from its visitors, and had been placed in the hands of an amphictyony, or committee of persons chosen mainly from Central Greece. According to the Suda, Delphi took its name from the Delphyne, the she-serpent drakaina who lived there and was killed by the god Apollo in other accounts the serpent was the male serpent drakon Python.[4][5]
