The Ex voto of the Attalids at Delphi consists of monuments erected by the Attalid kings of Pergamon in the sanctuary of Apollo during the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC[1]. These Hellenistic rulers positioned their dedications at the highest point of the Sacred Way, directly adjacent to the Temple of Apollo[1]. The Attalids, who ruled from their capital at Pergamon in modern-day Turkey, used these votive offerings to demonstrate their piety and political importance[1]. The location at Delphi made these ex votos particularly significant displays of royal devotion to Apollo[1].
