Sanctuary of Apollo Maleatas, Archaeological site on Mount Kynortion, Greece
The sanctuary rises on the slopes of Mount Kynortion, featuring remains of temples, altars, Roman baths, and an underground water storage system.
The site dates back to the third millennium BC, beginning as an Early Helladic settlement before evolving into a religious center during ancient times.
The sanctuary combined religious practices with medical treatments, marking an early connection between spirituality and healing methods in ancient Greek society.
