(重定向自Sybyl)
Sibyl by Francesco Ubertini, c. 1525
Michelangelo's Libyan Sibyl, Sistine Chapel
Michelangelo's Delphic Sibyl, Sistine Chapel

The sibyls were women that the ancient Greeks believed were oracles. The earliest sibyls, according to legend, prophesied at holy sites. Their prophecies were influenced by divine inspiration from a deity; originally at Delphi and Pessinos, the deities were chthonic deities. In later antiquity, various writers attested to the existence of sibyls in Greece, Italy, the Levant, and Asia Minor.
