odd research question - ancient delphi
date

Good question, Heather. I don't know the answer but I do know that various contending city-states from time to time would seize Delphi and act as "protectors" for the sanctuary. Philip of Macedon went to war over this. I'd be curious to learn the answer myself. Anyone?
anyone know what type of government delphi had around time of "gates"... from my understanding the region had the Amphictyony to debate matters of the sanctuary, but beyond that I have not found much on the city's governance itself.
Random, I know.
Anyone? Bueller?
