Apollo was a major deity in ancient Greek mythology, known as the god of music, poetry, art, oracles, Archery, plague, medicine, sun, light, and knowledge. He was depicted as a handsome and youthful figure, often shown playing a lyre. He was also a patron of prophecy and the leader of the muses.

Apollo was the Greek and Roman god of light and of the sun, amongst many other fields. He is also known as the patron deity of the Delphi Oracle, whom is noted in many myths and legends for the accuracy (although many predictions were standard ambiguous ones) of their foresight.

Many details of this particular god, like all others, are woven throughout mythologies; to cover them all here is extraordinarily difficult, but see the related links for a starting course.
