"Casa Sacră" şi importanţa ei pentru reconstituirea arhitecturii, amenajarea interiorului şi vieţii spirituale

  • Subiect: For prehistoric times, our information regarding the sacred house is related to the models of houses, sanctuaries, altars or sacred ovens. The study of these models is very important providing us with information related to the inner arrangements, the use of different structures, as well as the rank of the inhabitants; in very few cases we can see what and how was happening in such places. The mentioned models are very diverse: monumental dwellings such as sanctuaries, altars or different type of houses, pit-houses, huts. These models offered us more information, completing the archaeological data, which was sometimes very poor to support ample explanations. The oldest three dimensional representation is from Çayönü-Tepesi (7th millennium B.C.), showing a dwelling with flat roof and crenels, such as fortifications, very similar to the houses from the Neolithic site at Haçilar (VI millennium), both in Turkey. From oldest prehistoric times, when man was using stone tools, there are monumental sanctuaries with the representation of the hunted animals (wild boar, birds), such as those at Göbekli Tepe, showing allegories related to the hunting. These civilizations have directly or indirectly influenced the ones from southeast Europe, such as Lepenski Vir - Schela Cladovei. The last ones have also a monumental stone art. At Lepenski Vir there are some tenth sanctuaries with stone monumental statues rendering some divinities such as „fish”, „man-fish”. Some influences from Lepenski Vir - Schela Cladovei cultures have to be mentioned at Gura Baciului, where in P24 (including Grave 7) it was discovered a sand stone stela representing the Great Mother Goddess, as well as a limestone head on top of the burnt human bones. Such pieces can be found even later: in Middle Neolithic at Zau de Câmpie a fragment of a stela or statue made by local sand stone was discovered together with the offering. Starting with the Late Neolithic several house patterns have been noticed: at Turdal such pieces have been interpreted as place for keeping the seeds/cereals grains, being protected by protomas. At Vršac-At, in an area of a Vinča C–Turdaş I complex have been discovered several fragments of clay houses patterns. They can be used as spaces for keeping seeds or even a part of the cultic inventory.
