Addressing relationship between Greek and Minoan temples, the argument brought up by scull who insisted classical temples and adjent landscape was created by formal extension of the sacred landscape. The main goal of this research was to figure out the Minoan palaces was located primarily the landscape and connected to temple or the opposite But there were not many data and tangible fragment of temple complexes. The author had to use logical models. Investigating that the designed temples was laid out based on accurate survey then he added more accurate information from Geopattern system to find out all possible mathematical relationship. First he did most important natural resources comparing with orientations of actual buildings. And the author finally get to know the design was intentionally designed for orientation to natural resources not randomly done. Such the test are significant change and challenging factors of what we should conduct

This article is very relevant to what we are currently looking at with poverty point. These mounds are not random, but rather intentionally designed to repsond to the orientation of nature. We may not know what the Native Americans were specifically thinking, but we can get a good glimpse and start to assume. All of the surrounding natural resources, whether sky, land, or water affected the decision process of Poverty Point. Even the decision of the Poverty Point Plantation was affected by the natural resources found on-site.
The locality of natural resources has helped shape our "cities" throught the ages. These historical sites are testaments to how we should continue to design our current lanscapes and plan "with" the natural conditions of a site. The "disasters" created from building within hurricane, floodplains, and forest fire locations are telling us we as a society are doing something wrong in our intitial planning. Mother nature wins in the end, and she can be on our side our against us. We should adhere to the silent teachings of the ancient people, "work with the land."
