See
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Höhenheiligtum

So "Höhenheiligtum" is the German term for "high place", and it has its own WP article. Thanks, Arminden (talk) 08:10, 22 September 2015 (UTC)ArmindenReply

Thanks to whoever has set in the link (doesn't show on "edit history"). Arminden (talk) 08:16, 22 September 2015 (UTC)ArmindenReply

DEFINITION needed - concise, but with complete context

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

There is no concise definition in the lead. That's the No. 1 duty of any encyclopaedia.

The cultures for which the term "high place" is used are not clearly and comprehensively stated: Canaanite & Israelite, but also Nabataean, maybe even wider. It's not fully clear if the article means to say that there were shrines that can be called "high places" in Mesopotamia. This is again a matter of academic convention, i.e.: where this term can be used in a rigurously academic way, as probably all traditional religions across the world did/do have hilltop and mountaintop shrines ("Höhenheiligtümer"), but probably not all can be called "high places". So having a clear definition for this specific term is more necessary than elsewhere. Arminden (talk) 10:20, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
