神託所の多くはアポローンや英雄、あるいはテミスのような女神に捧げられるのが普通であったが、いくつかの神託所はゼウスに捧げられていた。 Although most oracle sites were usually dedicated to [[Apollo]], the heroes, or various goddesses like [[Themis]], a few oracular sites were dedicated to Zeus. In addition, some foreign oracles, such as [[Baʿal]]'s at [[Heliopolis (Syria)|Heliopolis]], were [[interpretatio graeca|associated]] with Zeus in Greek or [[Jupiter]] in Latin. ====The Oracle at Dodona====神託所の多くはアポローンや英雄、あるいはテミスのような女神に捧げられるのが普通であったが、いくつかの神託所はゼウスに捧げられていた。さらに、ヘリオポリスのバールのような外国の神託所の神は、ギリシャ語ではゼウス、ラテン語ではユーピテルと関連付けられていた。

The cult of Zeus at [[Dodona]] in [[Epirus]], where there is evidence of religious activity from the second millennium BC onward, centered on a sacred oak. When the ''[[Odyssey]]'' was composed (circa 750 BC), divination was done there by barefoot priests called ''Selloi'', who lay on the ground and observed the rustling of the leaves and branches.<ref>''Odyssey'' 14.326-7</ref> By the time [[Herodotus]] wrote about Dodona, female priestesses called [[peleiades]] ("doves") had replaced the male priests.
