Back in the 10-11 century, when the Nordic Catholic Christianity tried to gain hold on the island, there were already remnants of the Norse temples destroyed by the King Hrothgar's Covenant and its new republic. His granddaughter Linga inspired a cult based on the idea of her divinity, and the Temple was dedicated to her.
Most of the temples were built in and around the city of Bethel (see map here), which has been changed from a name of a Norse deity most likely Frygaheim, by king Kleist the Bloody who restored the democratic monarchy based on Noachide laws, and eradicated both the Christianity, and idol worship in the form of the Linga cult.
Initially the Book Temple was used to hold astrological tablets on 3 shelves carved into the wall. Many of the shelves and the tablets were destroyed by Christians and then the hordes of king Kleist the Bloody, only to be rebuilt afterward as a national archive. The books contained in the temple are copies of national family and land registers and other related ledgers dating back to 14th century. The originals are stored in the National Archives in Waldihnok.
