...little help :)

 

The location is one of the most important

 

mythological, historical and archaelogical sites in Greek.

 

..??.... had a postion as a holy sanctuary for a millenium before olympian, Greek

mythology made in the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis.

 

Established as a cult centre ...?... had an importance that it's natural resources could never offered. In this vein Leto, searching for a birting-place for Apollo, addressed the....?.. the location!?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

-Homeric- "Hymn to Delian Apollo"

 

...?...., if you would be willing to be the abode of my son Phoebus Apollo and make him

a rich temple ---- for no other will will touch you, as you will find : and I think you

will never be rich in oxen and sheep, nor bear vintage nor yet produce plants abundanty.

 

But if you have the temple of far-shooting Apollo, all men will bring you hecatombs and gather there, and incessant savour of rich sacrifice will always arise and you will feed those who dwell in you from the hand of stranger : for truly your own soil is not rich..!

maybe - now everybody must know ;)
