Dodoni

Dodoni is a sacred area in Epirus in ancient Greece, near the modern city of Ioannina[?]. It was the basis of the second most important oracle of antiquity after Delphi and the birth place for the worship of Zeus. In Dodoni one can find today the remnants of the temple of Zeus and the ancient theatre of Zeus, one of the most well preserved ancient greek theatres.
