Delphi. Greece. View of the square in front of the Temple of Apollo and the stone ramp to the pronaos. The Temple of Apollo is the most important building of Delphi and had been rebuilt a number of times in ancient times. The existing ruins belong to the 4th century BC Temple of Apollo which was the last rebuild of the Temple. The temple has six re-erected columns and is the usual Doric peripteral hexastyle and originally had 6 columns at each end and 15 columns at each side. The walls of the pronaos had inscriptions of famous quotations from the seven sages of Ancient Greece, such as “know Thyself and ‘Nothing in Excess”. The interior included the inner sanctum or Adyton, which was a sunken area of the temple where the oracles were given by the Priestess. Believed to be the 'navel' of the world' by the ancient Greeks, Delphi was the largest religious and spiritual centre in the ancient Mediterranean world and attracted pilgrims from all over the Hellenic world. Delphi is a UNESCO world Heritage Site.
