The history of Delphi
Delphi is best known as the ancient sanctuary dedicated to Apollo and home to the oracle of Delphi and priestess Pythia. Since ancient times, Delphi was a place famed for divining the future and a place of worship for Gaia, the mother goddess connected with fertility. The small Greek town and religious sanctuary perched on a difficult to reach mountainside, was for 1,000 years the proclaimed ‘omphalos’, the ‘bellybutton’, the very centre of the ancient world.
The Delphi method, created in modern times, is a structured technique developed as a systematic, interactive consensus-building methodology, which brings together the expertise of a panel of experts. Health care professionals and academics use the Delphi method to arrive a consensus on medical topics, and guide best practice.
