grbs-5801	Gregory, Timothy E.	Julian and the Last Oracle at Delphi	1983	12	.pdf	application/pdf	5883	258	64	The oracle is thus to be classified with stories of contests between Chris­ tian holy men and their demon adversaries and it fits into a long tradition of using oracles as 'evidence' in religious conflict.7 This, he argued, is in direct contradiction to what we know about Delphi, where oracles were always delivered by the Pythia and where the Kastalian Spring was only a part of the rites of purification prior to the consultation.	cache/grbs-5801.pdf	txt/grbs-5801.txt
