This is a journey through time to the sacred Island of Delos, one of the greatest sanctuaries in all of Greece. Centered in the heart of the Cyclades, it was the hub of a golden age for spiritual and economic Classical Hellas. |

 The god Apollo

Delos is the birthplace of Apollo
Here we can sing of all things Apollonian.
"...The lord of the unerring bow,
The god of life, and poetry, and light,
The Sun, in human limbs arrayed, and brow
All radiant from his triumph in the fight.
The shaft has just been shot; the arrow bright
With an immortal's vengeance; in his eye
And nostril, beautiful disdain, and might
And majesty flash their full lightnings by,
Developing in that one glance the Deity."
