Hi Penny,

I think it was the temple of Jupiter, whose doors remained closed while the people were at peace. Same story, of course; rites may have been copied, functions may have been moved.

Thor? Well, shall we agree that Thor would have won the elections in the areas with Germanic faith during the Early Middle Ages? Whether that makes him the best man for the job is a different matter, though.

Bye,
