Bakis
Bakis (also Bacis; ) is a general name for the inspired prophets and dispensers of oracles who flourished in Greece from the 8th to the 6th century B.C.〔 Philetas of Ephesus,〔Suda s. v. Βάκις〕 Aelian〔Aelian, ''Various Histories'', 12. 35〕 and John Tzetzes〔Tzetzes on Lycophron, 1278〕 distinguish between three: a Boeotian, an Arcadian and an Athenian.
==The Boeotian==
The first Bakis, a native of Eleon in Boeotia, who was the most famous, was said to have been inspired by the nymphs of the Corycian Cave. His oracles, of which specimens are extant in Herodotus and Pausanias, were written in hexameter verse, and were considered to have been strikingly fulfilled. Apocryphal oracular pronouncements in dactylic hexameters circulated under his name during times of stress, such as the Persian and Peloponnesian Wars.〔Pausanias, ''Description of Greece'', 4. 27. 4; 9. 17. 5; 10. 12. 11; 10. 14. 6; 10. 32. 8 – 9〕〔Herodotus, ''Histories'', 8. 20 & 77; 9. 43〕〔Scholia on Aristophanes, ''Peace'', 1070; on ''Horsemen'', 123〕〔Cicero, ''On Divination'', 1. 18. 34〕
