Peak sanctuaries


Minoan peak sanctuaries are widespread throughout the island of Crete (Greece). Most scholars agree that peak sanctuaries were used for religious rites. In all peak sanctuaries, human and animal clay figurines have been found. Clay body parts, also called votive body parts, are also found in most peak sanctuaries. These open-air sanctuaries are found high in the mountains of Crete.

Most peak sanctuaries are found in east and east-central Crete.

This section is for peak sanctuaries mentioned in passing in articles where more research is needed before categorizing them.
