Abstract

This paper provides the preliminary results of the archaeological results carried out on the southern hill of Akragas, at Temple D and within its sacred area. Through a olistic and a contextual approch, the project aims at deepening the understanding of this place of worship. The main goals deal with the architecture of both the temple and its altar, the identification of worshipped deity/deities, the reconstruction of ritual practices in time and space. The ultimate purpose is to shed new light on the sacred landscape, from the foundation of the ancient Greek colony to the post-antiques phases.
