                                  Introduction
  ===========================================================================

  Sanctuaries are large places that the gods desire, and they offer a place
  of worship for each god.  Building these structures isn't always the
  easiest thing to do.  You can't just build it like you can, say a Tax
  Collector, where you just choose the structure from the menu on the right
  and place it on the ground, and poof, it's up.  Sanctuaries take a long
  time to construct.  They require six things: space, road access, workers
  (builders), marble, wood, and sculptures.


  ===========================================================================
                        Sanctuary Descriptions/Functions
  ===========================================================================

  * Zeus' Stronghold
    When you build Zeus' Stronghold, Zeus, Ruler of Heaven provides
    you with an Oracle hat can predict the future.  For more
    information on how to use the Oracle, see page 124.  Zeus himself
    will also defend you against any god that dares to set foot in
    your city.  Other leaders of Greece will take notice of Zeus'
    affection for you, and they will think more highly of you.
    Sometimes, Zeus will wander around your city, taking in the sites.
    In his travels, he will occasionally sanctify a building.
    Because he is the most powerful god, he can perform any god's
    sanctification.  You can also pray to Zeus (page 124).  If he
    grants your prayer, he will defeat the next army that attacks your
    city.  If you are in great danger, Zeus might grant you this
    blessing of his own accord.

  * Promontory Of Poseidon
    Poseidon, Ruler of the Sea, will be so pleased when you build him
    his Sanctuary, he will send his Kraken to patrol your city's
    waters, killing any enemies that enter them.  He'll also convince
    urchins and fish to allow themselves to be caught faster.  Poseidon
    will also stroll ...er, swim... around the city and will sanctify
    Fisheries and Urchin Quays.  While they are sanctified, Fisheries
    and Urchin Quays will be more productive.  The ever-versatile
    Poseidon is also patron of horses and will also sanctify Horse
    Ranches.  While sanctified, more horses will magically appear in
    Horse Ranches.  Poseidon will give you seafood if your city is low
    on food, and you can also pray to him for this blessing.

  * Gates Of Hades
    Build Hades' Sanctuary, and the Ruler of the Underworld will loan
    you his favorite pet, Cerberus, wanders the city on his own and
    attacks any enemies.  The Gates also have some deposits of silver
    ore that miners from a Mint can gather.  Hades can sanctify Tax
    Offices, Mints, and Foundries.  While the Tax Office is sanctified,
    houses in the vicinity will pay more taxes.  While the Mint or
    Foundry is sanctified, it becomes more productive.  Finally, you
    can pray to Hades for Money.  If Hades notices on his own that
    you are low on money, he might give you money or he'll see to it
    that one of your allies provides you with funds.
            
  * Garden Of Demeter
    Fertile meadow surrounds the Garden of Demeter, Goddess of
    Fertility.  You can use land for farms, livestock, and orchards.
    On her walks around your city, Demeter will sanctify your farms,
    making them yield more food.  If Demeter notices that you are
    low on food, she will bring food from her own harvest to the
    Granaries.  You can also pray to Demeter to receive this blessing.

  * Arbor of Athena
    When you build the Arbor of Athena, Goddess of Warriors, Crafts,
    and Wisdom, she provides you with an arbor of sacred Olive Trees
    that growers from a Growers' Lodge can tend and harvest.  She
    also endows the soldiers in your city with more strength, and she
    herself will defend your city if it is threatened.  When Athena
    makes a foray into your city, she might sanctify your Carding Sheds
    and Olive Presses.  While they are sanctified, these buildings
    will become more productive.  You can pray to Athena for olives
    and olive oil, and she might grant you this blessing on her own
    if she notices that you are running low on the items.

  * Artemis' Menagerie
    Artemis, Goddess of Hunters, loans you two companies of fierce
    Amazon warriors.  She will also stroll around your city and hunt
    down any predators she sees killing another animal or person.  The
    building that she sanctifies is the Boar Hunter's Lodge.  While
    sanctified, the hunters from the Lodge find that their spears can't
    miss, and they are much more productive.  Pray to Artemis if you
    want her to bring you some pork.  She'll grant this blessing
    voluntarily if she notices that you are particularly low on food.
           
  * Oracle Of Apollo
    Apollo is the God of Prophecy.  If you build his Sanctuary, he
    will grant you use of his Oracle with which you can redict the
    future.  The god will also endow your city's philosophers,
    athletes, actors, and competitors with more skills, giving them
    a better chance of winning the Pan-Hellenic Games.  Apollo will
    also kill any monsters that attack your city.  When the god takes
    a walk, he might sanctify your Podiums, Gymnasiums, Theaters, and
    Stadium.  While these buildings are sanctified, more walkers will
    emerge from them to entertain the neighborhood.  If Apollo answers
    your prayer, he will cure the city of plague and improve citizens'
    health.  He might also grant this blessing on his own if he notices
    that a plague has broken out.

  * Ares' Fortress
    Ares, God of War, grants you the use of two companies of his fierce
    warriors, the Sparti, when you build his Fortress.  He will also
    take his Dragon for an occasional walk and allow his pet to feast
    on an invader, wolf, or vicious boar.  Pray to Ares if you would
    like him to accompany your soldiers into battle at another city.
    Ares loves a good fight, so sometimes he will go with your soldiers
    voluntarily.

  * Forge of Hephaestus
    Honor Hephaestus, Smith of Heaven, with a Sanctuary, and he gives
    you the gifts of the Forge.  Copper ore lies outside the Sanctuary,
    and miners from a Foundry can extract the ore.  Hephaestus also
    prevents your city's buildings from burning down.  As Hephaestus
    walks around your city, he sanctifies some of your Armories and
    Sculpture Studios.  While the buildings are sanctified, the workers
    find that bronze is much easier to work with, and they produce
    more armor and sculpture than they usually do.  Pray to Hephaestus,
    and he will answer your prayer by granting you the use of Talos,
    his man of bronze.  Talos will defend your city from attack for
    a few months.  If Hephaestus senses that you are in trouble, he
    might send Talos to you on his own.

  * Aphrodite's Haven
    Aphrodite, Goddess of the Tender Passions, makes your city so
    attractive that people refuse to leave.  No one will emigrate as
    long as Aphrodite's Haven is working in the city.  She will also
    make your city seem more appealing to its residents.  And, if Ares,
    Hephaestus, Hermes, or Dionysus come into your city to cause
    trouble, Aphrodite will send them packing.  On her strolls, she
    sanctifies some of your houses, and they will gain more residents
    if they have room.  If Aphrodite answers your prayer, she will
    bless all of your city's houses with more residents.  She might
    even perform this blessing for you voluntarily if she notices
    that your city's housing is mostly vacant.

  * Hermes' Refuge
    Hermes, Messenger of the Gods, is a friend of traders.  He will
    convince trade caravans and ships to move through your city quicker,
    which means that they drop off and pick up supplies faster.  He
    also convinces more trade caravans and ships to come to your city
    every year.  Deliverymen also move faster when Hermes is in
    residence.  You can also pray to Hermes, and he will fulfill one
    outstanding request on your behalf with no cost to you.  He'll also
    offer this blessing to you of his own accord.

  * Grove of Dionysus
    Dionysus, God of the Vine, hates to see any city go without wine.
    His Sanctuary has a grove of Grapevines that growers from the
    Growers' Lodge can harvest.  Life is a party with Dionysus around,
    and people are having far too much fun for any unrest to develop.
    As he stumbles around your city, Dionysus sanctifies Wineries.
    While sanctified, the vintners are able to ferment more wine than
    they usually can.  You can also pray to Dionysus to give you wine of
    his own accord if he notices that you are low on his favorite
    beverage.


  ===========================================================================
                             Sanctuary Construction
  ===========================================================================

  If you're going to worship a god, you will need to build a Sanctuary.  
  In 'Pharaoh', we had to build Pyramids and several other structures.  
  Well, in 'Zeus', we have to build these rather large Sanctuaries.

  Every Sanctuary has a different size.  Due to that fact, each Sanctuary 
  will require a different amount of marble to place the base and steps.

  When you have enough money and marble, you can start construction on 
  the Sanctuary.  The process is very similar to building the buildings 
  in 'Pharaoh'.

  For the largest Sanctuaries, you cannot see the entire footprint of the 
  building when trying to find a spot for it's construction.  In this 
  situation, find a place for the building, and press the [m] key.  This 
  will freeze the footprint and you can view the surrounding area.  You 
  can also press the [r] key to rotate the building.  Sanctuaries require 
  road access to function.

  Placing the base and steps of a Sanctuary is only the beginning.  To 
  complete the whole project, you'll need the services of some artisans 
  from an Artisans' Guild and supplies of marble, wood, and scultpures.  
  An Artisans' Guild needs road access to operate.  Be aware that the 
  Guilds have a negative effect on Desirability.

  Now it's just a matter of time before the project is complete.
