Delphi & the Amphictyony in 218 B.C.

Delphi & the Amphictyony — Aetolian League › Aetolia & the Amphictyony.

Delphi and the ancient Amphictyonic Council that governs its shrine. Having saved the oracle from the Gauls in 279, the Aetolians hold the majority of the council’s votes — and with it the religious leadership of Greece, a prestige worth more than provinces.
