Its origin dates back to the depths of Prehistory. The Great Godess, the godess of fertility and euphoria, was initially worshiped there, to be later replaced by the Dodonian Zeus worship.

Round the sacredtree there were tripods made of copper, making sounds used by the priests to tell the oracles.
