The truth about the Oracle's insight is that her chamber was situated above a sulfer deposit. The fumes would rise into the chamber, and the oracle would breathe them in, causing some hallucinogenic properties. Much of what the Oracle would say would be gibberish, and her interpreters would repeat these insights in more comprehensible Greek.

I'm not sure that theory of the sulfer deposit is proven - apparently, the "explanation of a chasm that emitted gas is not seen in the source material until the first century BC. This allusion seems to appear in the later sources, many of which were written by Christians who aimed to dismiss 'pagan' rituals and traditions such as the Oracle." Not saying the Oracle wasn't high on something, though xD

I'm sure Apollo must've helped a lot by sharing his PROPHECIES as they say to the oracles just like I'm sure the spell in Egypt to cure scorpion sting was so effective. Ancient civilisations, am I right?

I have learned in Latin class that some oracles (not sure if it was the Oracle of Delphi) were forced to take in some drugs and through states of forced delirium or epilepsy, they would give their prophecy. Like a lot of women got abused in this profession...

Thank you for this! Would love to see a TED video on ancient divination (and maybe philosophical arguments for its veracity).

The practice of the Oracle corresponded to where the Oracle existed, when the Oracle existed and how the Oracle existed. Also why the Oracle existed.
