This chapter describes the IIa/b and IIc phases of the Stele Building as a "shrine", and treats these symbolic features as attributes of a Luwian religious structure. The central space, called Room 3, hosted two elements of the building, the central hearth and the altar in the north corner, which persisted throughout both IIa/b and IIc phases. The Stele Building at Kilise Tepe, while clearly serving as a storehouse and very likely as the base for local administrators in the 13th and early 12th centuries, displays certain elements, principally the altar and the stele itself, which point to a cultic role as well. Animal bones under the floors of Rooms 2 and 4 probably represent deposits of food offerings, while astragali behind the altar and concealed beneath the floor of Room 7 may reflect divinatory practices pursued within the building. Keywords: altar; astragali; Kilise Tepe; Luwian religious structure; Stele Building
