Will there be "religious space" in early buildings in the East and the West?
Regardless of the east or the west, temples, palaces and tombs are not only sacred, but also public and a sacred space. Susan Langer, an American scholar, said that most early buildings-prehistoric buildings, hills and temples-defined a so-called "religious space", which was an illusory field. Although the temple is located according to the dichotomy, it only symbolizes the "ends of the earth" for early people who don't know the astronomical phenomena at all. This temple really built a bigger space world for them-naturally, this is the residence of gods and demons. In its limited scope, we can see the gods in the sky soaring and descending. When it presents this space to secular ideas, it integrates man with heaven and man with God. Not only religious etiquette is public, but also political etiquette is public. A country and a nation often strengthen the cohesion of tribes and nations through etiquette.
