Sibyl rock
This is an outcropping of rock on the site of Delphi, standing just to the south of the Polygonal Wall. Pausanias, a visitor to the site in the 2nd century C.E., writes in his travel log, "There is a rock rising up above the ground. The Delphians say a woman stood there and chanted the oracles. Her name was Herophile, whose surname was Sibyl. I find that she was the previous Sibyl, just as ancient as any other, whom the Greeks say to be a daughter of Zeus by Lamia, daughter of Poseidon, and the first woman to chant oracles. They also say that she was named Sibyl by the Libyans."
