Apollo & the Oracle of Delphi in Greek Mythology

In this video, we explore the fascinating story of Apollo and the Oracle of Delphi, one of the most mysterious and powerful places in ancient Greece. Apollo, the god of prophecy, established his oracle at Delphi after defeating the serpent Python. The Oracle, through the priestess Pythia, delivered cryptic prophecies that shaped the fates of kings, generals, and empires. Famous figures like King Croesus sought the Oracle’s guidance, often misinterpreting its ambiguous messages. We also explore the rituals at Delphi, the Pythian Games, and the Oracle’s lasting legacy as a symbol of divine wisdom and mystery.
