Among the changes coming from the transition between the Bronze and Iron Age, the absence of temples in the Central Hill Country is prominent. The biblical text that refer to the period, however, present several places of worship in the region of Benjamin’s Plateau, mainly linked to the Saulide “house” or dynasty. The present article, from this panorama, discusses the dissonances between the biblical descriptions about places of worship of the “House of Saul” and those found in the archaeological record of the period. In reconfiguring the view on the issue, assuming a concept of religion shaped by media and socio-communicative aspects, based on the materiality and mediality of religion, two levels of religious practices are proposed from the archaeological record, each with its respective places of worship. As conclusion, the articles argue that the biblical text uses memories to compose its portrait, which are altered in nuances to adapt to the larger plot in the history of Saul versus David.
