Originally, these were places in the natural landscape that humans regarded as sacred, locations with a special aura, such as rocks or springs, or mighty trees, where they felt particularly close to the Earth Mother and the divine. Later, they attempted to manifest the sacred, the divine, the cosmic order, and the order of earthly space on Earth through architectural changes. Stefan Brönnle connects Stonehenge to Malta, the Egyptian and Mesoamerican pyramids, Indian temples, and European church buildings. He first describes the mythological foundations of sacred architecture, the sacred tree, the world axis, the body of the goddess, numerical symbolism, and much more. A significant focus is on the representation of sacred technology: how geomantic phenomena like water veins and ley lines are involved.
