The Navel of the Earth was believed by the Ancient Greeks to be Delphi, a spiritual hub for all Greeks.
This location contained numerous sanctuaries and the most renowned oracle in ancient Greece. Pythia, the high priestess, provided divine advice from god Apollo to people who journeyed worldwide to receive a prophecy. In addition to the Greeks, the Oracle was visited by foreign leaders and dignitaries eager to learn the will of Apollo regarding crucial state affairs.
