===Stadium=== {{main|Stadium of Delphi}} [[File:Αρχαίο στάδιο Δελφών2.jpg|thumb|The mountain-top stadium at Delphi]] The [[stadium]] is located farther up the hill, beyond the ''via sacra'' and the theatre. It was built in the fifth century BC, but was altered in later centuries. The last major remodelling took place in the second century AD under the patronage of [[Herodes Atticus]] when the stone seating was built and an (arched) entrance created. It could seat 6500 spectators and the track was {{Convert|177|m|abbr=on}} long and {{Convert|25.5|m|abbr=on}} wide.<ref name="d">{{Cite web |title=Delphi Stadium |url=http://www.ancient-greece.org/architecture/delphi-stadium.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240226050846/https://ancient-greece.org/architecture/delphi-stadium.html |archive-date=Feb 26, 2024 |website=Ancient-Greece.org}}</ref>
