Revival of an ancient Hekate ritual!
"The Hekatesia key-carrying ceremony has deep historical significance. In ancient times, the route from Lagina’s Hekate Sanctuary to Stratonikeia was not merely symbolic, but represented a political and religious bond. "

Stratonikeia held many names at different times in its history. Around 430 BCE the city was named Hekatesia before being named Stratonikeia by the Seleucids. Before that, it was called Idrias in the 500s BCE and even earlier, Chrysaoris. And Chrysaoris, my friends, is where things get interesting.
