Athletes and Oracles: The Transformation of Olympia and Delphi in the Eighth Century BC - Cambridge Classical Studies

This is a study of the origins and practices at Olympia and Delphi which challenges many assumptions about the nature and role of the archaeological data. Dr Morgan considers the economics of dedication, technology and the organization of craft production which provide insights into the behaviour of producers and purchasers of material dedicated at the sanctuaries.
