12.11.08 SITE THREE - Shrine of sacrifices




This is where any sacrifice that needs to be made is done, note the three pots which are significant likewise the selection of trees. The piece of wood balanced between the trees above the pots is also a barrier that cannot be crossed or taken down except by someone in authority to do so...usually the High Priest.

The central chamber of the Mbaris is most potent and where the god is supposed to linger. Only the High Priest is allowed to enter here.
