In Greek mythology, the god Apollo (also: Apollon) was associated, among other things, with the famous Oracle of Delphi. According to tradition, the last oracle of Pythia (the title of the resident seer/fortune teller) in the second half of the fourth century – i.e., as Christianity was spreading – is said to have read:
"Tell the king that the beautifully constructed house has fallen.
Phoibus Apollo no longer has refuge,
the sacred laurel withers,
his springs are forever silent,
the murmuring of the waters has fallen silent."

The archaic Temple of Apollo was built around the 6th century BC and is considered one of the most significant monuments in the region. Of the original 38 monolithic columns, seven still stand today.
