Abstract

This paper focuses in the sanctuary of Dodona and its relation to the different routes that leads there. By means of several sources, as for instance archaeology, epigraphy and literature, it seeks to point out that politic, economic, religious and urban development of this sanctuary is deeply linked with the same processes that took place in the entire Epirus.
