The son of Zeus and Leto; brother of Artemis.
Apollon was the patron of the oracle at the city of Delphi; numerous temples scattered throughout Greece and Asia Minor were dedicated in his honor.
The belief in Apollon’s abilities to convey wisdom and prophecy transcended national boundaries and religions; emissaries from all corners of the civilized world made pilgrimages to the various shrines of Apollon.
For more detailed information on Apollon I suggest that you return to the Home Page of this site and consult the Immortals section.
