"Delphes" is a French equivalent of "Delphi."

The French and the English nouns both are translations of the name of a famous Greek city. In ancient times, Delphi was known for athletic competitions that were held every four years and for the predictions of the Mediterranean world's foremost prophetic priestess, the Pythia for the sun god Apollo. Nowadays, the city is known for its wealth of archaeological finds and its proximity to coastal tourist activities.

The French pronunciation is "dehlf."
