Oracle of Apollo at Patara

PATARA (Ancient city) TURKEY
Oracle of Patara, in Lycia. The story (not of course likely to be approved of at Delphi) was that Apollo spent six months of the year here (the winter time) and the six summer months at Delos. (Tzetz. ad Lycophr. 401; Servius ad Verg. Aen. iv. 143: cf. Herod. i. 182.)
