The place where the Oracle at Delphi made her prophecies. Apparently the process was that the Oracle would get exposed to fumes from a cauldron that would get her intoxicated, she would also be chewing some other hallucinogenic and then she would go behind a curtain or screen or inside the temple and start yelling out incomprehensible gibberish which the three assistant oracle's would then translate.

Treasury of Athens, Delphi was considered neutral grown so all the different Greek city states would have there own Treasury where they would ask people for donations. The one for Athens is the only one that has been reconstructed.
