Archaeologists are becoming increasingly aware of the role that cultural memory has played in the creation of sacred space in Ancient Greece. The study of the Bronze Age predecessors of major Greek religious sites and, especially of cases of integration of Mycenaean ruins and objects into the ritual contexts of the Geometric period, demonstrates that in the Early Iron Age certain Mycenaean sites functioned as “lieux de mémoire” and affected the process of sacralization of space and the formation of Greek sanctuaries.
