This World History Encyclopedia article by Nathalie Choubineh describes the Amphictyonic League's authority waning as Macedonian power grew, its survival through the Hellenistic and Roman periods restricted mainly to religious duties over the Delphic sanctuary, and its formal replacement by the emperor Hadrian's Panhellenion in 131 CE, an institution that itself did not outlast the year.
