This altar is located on Dedetepe, just west of the village of Adatepe in the district of Ayvacık. According to legend, this is the spot from which Zeus stood and directed the course of history by playing his role in the Trojan War. Homer's Iliad places Zeus closer to Mount Ida, so it's possible the Greek God did not actually direct the events of the war from this spot, but the altar itself is still carved beautifully and well worth a visit.
