Tarra or Tarrha ((ギリシア語:Τάρρα)) was an ancient city-state of western Crete, near the Samaria Gorge, at the village of Agia Roumeli. It is situated near the sea, on the hill. ==History== Tarra was probably established in the Classical period and was a very important religious centre. The city flourished in the Greco-Roman period. The city was home to the cult of Apollo Tarraios, where parts of his temple have been found. Tarra is frequently cited in the ancient sources. Tarra is one of the cities that signed an agreement with Eumenes B’ in 170 BC. In the Middle Ages, Tarra was known for its glassworks workshops. In 1415, Buondelmonti detected in the ruins of the Temple of Apollo, an inscription in Greek which said: “Peel your shoes, cover your head and come in.” A similar inscription was found at the Temple at Matala. The custom of entering the temple without shoes is ancient. Apollo, after murdering Python, went to Tarra to be cleansed through purgatorial rituals ministered by the temple priest, Karmanoras. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tarra, Crete」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
