Cathedral of Kasmeze (building)

Who originally built the great Citadel at Kasmeze and its attached temple is a question that still has no definitive answer. Most scholars agree that the site benefited greatly from Emperor Partharian's patronage starting around 200, but debates are still ongoing as to whether he had actually built the core of the structure, or Mountain-Sun Temple splinter factions as has been suggested numerous times. In any case, it would quickly become one of the greatest and most prosperous pilgrimage sites of the south, and the Aagiokrata in general, in the following two centuries - even rivaling the likes of the Vounill and Thebastro.
