Article is devoted to the functions of the altars in the Holy Books of the
Old Testament. The etymology of the word altar and its place in temples in
Egyptian, Assyrian and Babylonian traditions is discussed firstly. The main
part of this article is a research on diversity and localisation of the altars in
Israel, their different functions in the Old Testament, as: place of sacrifice;
monument; place where people prayed to God and an asylum (especially
their horns) for unintentional murderers.
