Ancient Greek Shiva Linga

ANCIENT GREEK SHIVA LINGA OF THE DELPHI

The sanctuary of Apollo in Delphi, and all the Pythian sanctuaries after it, were all centered around the “omphalus”, also called the “center of the world”, which from the depictions was obviously a Siva lingam, with the Sakti serpent coiled around it and even bilva leaves scattered on it. I can send the drawing by jpg file if anyone is interested. I found it in a book where Vedic civilization was not mentioned at all, and the writer had never heard about Siva or lingam worship.
