Ulthar

Ulthar is a village in the Dreamlands of Earth. Its people are known for their simplicity, superstitious nature and reverence of cats. In the village it was forbidden for any citizen of the land to harm or kill a cat, after the visit of mysterious dark people who resemble Romani from Earth, albeit overt worshippers of Ancient Egyptian style deities (: "The Cats of Ulthar").
==Description==
For those wise enough to not anger the large population of man-eating cats, the cobbled streets of Ulthar seem to be some of the most pleasant in the mythos. Surrounded by suburbs of "little green cottages and neatly fenced farms" the centre of the town is composed of pink buildings, topped with old, peaked, red tiled roofs, overhanging upper stories and numberless chimney-pots". (: The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath)
===The Temple of the Elder Ones===
Above the town on the area's highest hill is the modest, ivy-clad stone tower of the Temple of the Elder Ones, home to priests and their ancient records under the watchful eye of patriarch Atal. Randolph Carter visited the temple during his search for Kadath.
