Image description

Consulting the Delphic Oracle. The most important of all the Greek oracles was that of Apollo at Delphi, a city on the slopes of Mount Parnassus in Phocis. The priestess, after chewing the sacred bay and drinking water from the sacred spring, took her seat on the tripod. Her utterances, skilfully interpreted by the attendant priests, were believed to convey the will of Apollo to his worshippers. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson, c.1920).
