Abstract

We can see many mysterious and marvelous elements in the divine field from the ancient northern European sites. Before 3000 B.C., in the divine region that belongs to the period of megalithic culture, there were number of megaliths, placed with the fixed direction, in the region where it is closely related with the solar movement. The megalithic culture, developed in northern Europe, grew as Indo-European religion that worshipped sun-gods, and these temples are associated with sunrise. The movement of Indo-European had exerted enormous influence to the religious structures and the religion of other areas. The subject of study about the solar temples or building structure of solar observatory is associated with the movement of Indo-European that includes extensive area from northern Europe through Rome, Athene, Crete, Cyprus and even to Palestine. Thus, it is reasonable to be studied, the structure of early temples, the organization of plan of temples at Greek Rome, and the origin of the structure of Medieval gothic cathedral that can be said as the beauty of completion, with mutual relation. What are the formation of these earliest temples? how are these grew with development of civilization? and with what extent these are accomplished, are all elements that remarkably attract interests.
