First greek temple on sicily, then used as things like church, army barracks, etc. Many temples built in italy and stuff, and his were very early. Corinth (was once europe"s largest city), palatinus rome, etc. Map of places to know- (insert slide) Oracle chamber is right above where two geological fault lines meet. Methane gas is emitted from right underneath it. Looked like she was huffing when giving people prophecies, that"s why she could do it and others couldn"t. Had athletic competitions, theater performances, temples, etc.
