Question

Why did the ancient greeks believe that natural places like springs and tree groves were important

Answer 1

Answer:

That is because every sacred stream, spring, cliff, or tree grove was considered to be invaded by spirits that guarded the areas.

Explanation:

The Celts called areas after gods, or so it has been said time and time repeatedly. Although the folklorist Claude Lecouteux thinks it was a different way around. The Celts described the gods later the sacred places.
