How did the Greeks worship? The ancient Greeks lived in many separate city states. Each was run in different ways. Sometimes, the city states fought each other. But they shared the same religion and language. Religion was important to all ancient Greeks. They believed in many different gods and goddesses, who could affect life on earth. The gods and goddesses had to be worshipped to keep them happy. As part of this worship, the ancient Greeks built beautiful temples as homes for the gods.

This book analyzes the rise of the earliest Greek temples through an innovative phenomenological approach, in which lived experiences are assumed as key tools of investigation. Accordingly, much space is dedicated to exploring the connections that tied the Greeks to their surroundings environment, by surviving records of Greek religion, poetry, art, philosophy and architecture from the archaic times. This framework sheds a new light on the relationship between 'human' and 'divine' in the ancient Greek world, suggesting that the archetypal structure of temple was devised to facilitate a particular kind of experience, that of the Divine. Such an experience produced a break from ordinary and profane life, allowing a special awareness to be gained. The findings and method of this book enable us to bridge the gap between our present days and that distant era, rediscovering our ancient past as an endless source of inspiration
