		The oldest collection of Sibylline oracles appears to have been made about the time of Solon and Cyrus at Gergis on Mount Ida in the Troad; it was attributed to the Hellespontine Sibyl and was preserved in the temple of Apollo at Gergis.
		The Sibylline Books were entrusted to the care of two patricians; after 367 BC ten custodians were appointed, five patricians and five plebeians; subsequently (probably in the time of Sulla) their number was increased to fifteen.
		As the Sibylline Books had been collected in Anatolia, in the neighborhood of Troy, they recognized the goddesses and gods and the rites observed there and helped introduce them into Roman State worship, a syncretic amalgamation of national deities with the corresponding deities of Greece, and a general modification of the Roman religion.

		Their use appears to have been twofold: they were consulted in times of danger, for predictions and warnings,2 and on the occurrence of unprecedented portents or disasters, for the discovery of appropriate rituals of propitiation.
		The existing Sibylline books, having passed through the hands of Jewish and Christian editors, naturally retain no traces of such ritual injunctions as it was the business of the Quindecimvirs to discover.3 Indeed it appears that even in the Roman books the expected answers were by no means found lying on the surface.
		One account of it avers that a line was chosen at random, and an acrostic was made, with the letters composing this line as the "lights": verses beginning with the appropriate letters were then discovered in the oracles and perhaps composed for the occasion.

		The songs are generally brief, especially considering the grand scope of the music on the disc, and it’s a testament to Reaves’ talent that he manages to give the songs such an epic feel in such a short span.
		The biggest drawback to the double-album release is that many of the songs, especially on Sibylline Machine, have the feel of studio outtakes being pressed too quickly so that the discs could be combined as a single release.
		If there is a sibylline prophecy to be taken from the album, it is that the label has the power to become a major force for Austin and the indie-pop scene.

		The Sibyl sat on the Sibylline Rock, breathing in vapors from the ground
		After investigating the site, archeologists were convinced that these vapours are only a myth, as no evidence for them could be found, and — so the then standard opinion in geology — gaseous emissions from rock only occur in conjunction with volcanic activity.
		However, recent geological research indicates that the site of the oracle shows young geological faults, and it seems plausible that these emitted in ancient times light hydrocarbon gases, possibly ethylene, from bituminous limestone which do have an intoxicating effect.
