People went to Delphi primarily to seek guidance and prophecy from the Oracle of Delphi, a priestess known as Pythia, who was believed to channel the god Apollo. The site was considered the center of the world in ancient Greek mythology and served as a major religious sanctuary where individuals and city-states would consult the oracle on matters of importance, such as politics, warfare, and personal affairs. In addition to its religious significance, Delphi was also a cultural hub, hosting the Pythian Games, which celebrated athletic and artistic competitions.

Why do people go to the oracle at Delphi in 'Oedipus Rex'?
To receive answers to questions and to understand divine will are the reasons why people go to the oracle at Delphi in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Oedipus visits the Delphic oracle because he has questions about his parentage. He presumes Corinthian monarchs Polybus and Merope to be his parents until he hears a rumor to the contrary and gets evasive answers from his presumed father. He dislikes what the oracle says so he is in a bad mood when his destination of Thebes intersects with Theban King Laius' destination of Delphi.
