Temple of the Stars : ウィキペディア英語版 | Temple of the Stars The Temple of the Stars is an alleged ancient temple claimed to be situated around Glastonbury in Somerset, England. ==Origin== The temple is claimed by some to depict a colossal landscape zodiac, a map of the stars on a gigantic scale, formed by features in the landscape (roads, streams, field boundaries, etc.). The theory was first put forward in 1934 by Katherine Maltwood, an artist who "discovered" the zodiac in a vision, and held that the "temple" was created by Sumerians in about 2700 BC.〔Maltwood, K. E. ''A Guide to Glastonbury’s Temple of the Stars: Their Giant Effigies Described From Air Views, Maps, and From "The High History of the Holy Grail"'' (London, The Women’s Printing Society, Ltd., 1934). Her next book on the subject matter, ''Air View Supplement To A Guide To Glastonbury’s Temple of The Stars'' was published in 1937.〕 The idea was revived in 1969 by Mary Caine in an article in the magazine ''Gandalf's Garden'' (number 4).〔http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~pardos/GGZodiac.html〕 Compared to Maltwood's version, she turned Scorpio upside down, added a monk to Gemini, and altered the outlines of Capricorn, Libra, and Leo. The temple plays an important role in many occult theories. It has been associated with the Grail legend, Uther Pendragon, and King Arthur (according to some legends buried in Glastonbury).
