eg. the oracle of Delphi from Oedipus Rex
the only fortune tellers i know of are the gypsy-like ones with scarves and mystic balls... i have to draw a greek oracle for a project but have no idea what he/she would look like. i'm guessing they wouldn't have a mystic ball....
i've tried googling pics but to no avail. do you have any possible links/descriptions?
thanks a lot!

There's an oracle in the movie 300, a bit too fantastic but an oracle nonetheless
