Interesting facts about this location
Abae
Abae is an ancient town in the northeastern corner of Phocis, in Greece. It was famous in antiquity for its oracle of Apollo Abaeus, one of those consulted by Croesus, king of Lydia, and Mardonius, among others. It was rich in treasures, but was destroyed by the Persians in the invasion of Xerxes in 480 BCE, and a second time by the Boeotians and remained in a ruined state. It was rebuilt by Hadrian. The oracle was, however, still consulted, e.g. by the Thebans before Leuctra in 371 BCE.
