- The god Apollo is the eternally youthful Greek god of education, healing, divination, music and the plague. Some have even contended (looking at you JJ Winckelmann) he is the “most Greek” of the gods. Is this true? Maybe a strange thing to say? We will discuss. Legitimately, Apollo’s sanctuaries at Delos and Delphi are the most magnificent and most important in the Greek world. His influence reaches into every corner of the Greek psyche and social order. Let's get into it.

Thank you, my father named me Apollo so I’m always curious of any historical info about him 😊
In the opening, when you asked "So, what is his prime characteristic?", my brain anticipated it as "So, what is his problem?" 😅
Edit: I should add, I greatly enjoyed the video. Thank you.
As a younger twin brother myself, I have always found an affinity towards Apollo. Thank you for an incredibly insightful and entertaining video. Is there any e any possibility of doing a video on ethnicity in ancient Greece?
I am glad you enjoyed it! Ethnicity in ancient Greece is a fantastic idea for a video.
Thanks!
