Delphic


precinct of apollo at delphi, located on the slopes of mount parn-ssus. according to a late source, her mother was lamia, daughter of poseidon1. the delphic sibyl was not involved in the operation of the delphic oracle and should be considered distinct from the pythia, the priestess of apollo.
there are several, not necessarily consistent, legends about the delphic sibyl, one claims that her last prophecy was said to be the birth of jesus christ. -pausanias claimed (10.14.1) that the sibyl was “born between man and goddess, daughter of sea monsters and an immortal nymph”. others said she was the sister or daughter of apollo.
the sibyl came from the troad to delphi before the trojan war, “in wrath with her brother apollo”, lingered for a time at samos, visited claros and delos, and died in the troad, after surviving nine generations of men. after her death, it was said that she became a wandering voice that still brought to the ears of men tidings of the future wrapped in dark riddles.
