Shkeputa nje pjese te shkurter nga pershtypjet e nje vizitori te Dodones:
.....duke leshuar nje tingull si zile per te cilin eshte thene te jete ZERI i ZEUSIT...Divining at Dodona
One method of divination used at Dodona was for the bare-footed priestesses to listen to the sound of the wind through the trees. Modern-day visitors can try the same process - I did. I stood quietly as the wind rustled the leaves and birds circled around the tree tops. I formed a simple question in my mind: what did Dodona have to tell me? The answer was equally simple - some spots really do have the power to uplift and transform their visitors. I've visited many sacred spots, but never have I felt so strongly that there was something different and special in the land itself as I did at Dodona. The only other place I've visited that shared some of that same feeling is another -dona, Sedona, Arizona, renowned as an alleged vortex of spiritual power.
But simple wind divination such as mine grew too boring for the ancient practitioners and worshippers at this site. About twenty-eight hundred years ago, this process was made more sophisticated, and bronze cauldrons on tripods were set up so that when the wind blew, the cauldrons would touch, emitting a bell-like sound which was said to be the Voice of Zeus.
