A place is listed here when Wikidata records it as an archaeological site — an ancient city now excavated, a culture’s site. That is not evidence of worship there, so none of these is called a sacred place.
Ordered by how many Wikipedias have an article on each — a measure of how widely a subject is written about, not of its importance to any tradition.
