I do not know much about temples though, so in that I cannot help... What was the temple for? How is it linked to harvesting power?
I find these old tales fascinating to look at though, especially if someone knowledgeable can make parallels to stuff I know more about
What was it FOR? I don't really know how to answer that. As far as I can tell, it is just the nature of people to eventually form communities, and it is the nature of communities to eventually build temples.
I don't really know how an ANCIENT temple would have harvested power, I can only guess, but the whole thing looks like more or less a MACHINE for harvesting power. Animal sacrifices aren't just facts, right? You don't just buy them off the shelf, some poor shepherds had to deal with all of this.
