c. 1616-17 depiction of a Sibyl by Domenichino

The Sibylline Oracles (sometimes called the "pseudo-Sibylline Oracles") are a collection of oracular utterances written in Greek hexameters ascribed to the Sibyls, prophetesses who uttered divine revelations in a frenzied state. Fourteen books and eight fragments of Sibylline Oracles survive. These are not considered to be identical to the original Sibylline Books of Roman mythology, which have been lost, but a collection of utterances that were composed or edited under various circumstances, between perhaps the middle of the 2nd century BC and the 5th century AD.
