The word _Höhlengefühl_ is Leo Frobenius’s (_Paideuma_, p. 92).

The oldest plan of Roma Quadrata was a “templum” whose limits had nothing to do with the building-up of the city but were connected with sacral rules, as the significance of this precinct (the “Pomœrium”) in later times shows. A “templum,” too, was the Roman camp whose rectangular outline is visible to-day in many a Roman-founded town; it was the consecrated area within which the army felt itself under the protection of its gods, and originally had nothing whatever to do with fortification, which is a product of Hellenistic times. (It may be added that Roman camps retained their rigidity of outline even where obvious “military considerations” of ground, etc., must have suggested its modification.—_Tr._) Most Roman stone-temples ("_ædes_") were not “templa” at all. On the other hand, the early Greek τέμενος of Homeric times must have had a similar significance.
