A temple (from the Latin word templum ) is a structure reserved for religious or spiritual activities, such as prayer and sacrifice , or analogous rites . A templum constituted a sacred precinct as defined by a priest, or augur . It has the same root as the word "template," a plan in preparation of the building that was marked out on the ground by the augur . Temple also became associated with the dwelling places of a god or gods. Despite the specific set of meanings associated with the religion of the ancient Rome , the word has now become quite widely used to describe a house of worship for any number of religions and is even used for time periods prior to the Romans.
