The Pythian priestess emerged preeminent by the end of the 7th century BC and continued to be consulted until the late 4th century AD.[7] During this period, the Delphic Oracle was the most prestigious and authoritative oracle among the Greeks, and she was among the most powerful women of the classical world. The oracle is one of the best-documented religious institutions of the classical Greeks.
