    The Story Behind Oracle

    The name 'Oracle' is derived directly from the Latin word 'oraculum', which refers to a prophecy, a place where prophecies are given, or the person who delivers them. In ancient Greece and Rome, oracles were highly revered figures or institutions believed to be conduits for divine wisdom and foresight. The most famous was the Oracle of Delphi.
