Pythia was title of the prophetic priestess of the oracle of Apollo at Delphi. It likely comes from Apollo's slaying of Python or Delphyna.

A prophetess and human voice of Apollo was called a?

The term for a prophetess or human voice of Apollo in the times of ancient Greece and Rome was an Oracle. The most famous oracles tended to be voices of Apollo, such as the Oracle and Delphi. Oracles would enter into trances during which they would offer often surprisingly accurate predictions and answers to questions offered of them. It is noteworthy that most oracles actually dwelled in places where psychotropic gases seeped from the Earth's surface. These gases would often aid in the hallucinagenic properties of the trance, and some say, open a more psychic connection for the oracle.

Do you have to be married to a prophet in order to be a prophetess?

No. God hands out His gifts to individuals who are obedient to Him. In this case, to those who will speak His message. Answer:- Not since the days of Miriam,Deborah,Huldah,Noadiah, Anna and one other, not named in scripture, has God call a prophetess. When a prophet is called the wife does not automatically become a prophetess. Though there were prophetess in bygone days none held the Holy Priesthood, but were called as a special assignment by the Lord.
