The Temple of Kybele was a temple dedicated to the Anatolian goddess Kybele, located in a canyon on the Greek island of Lesbos.^[1]

By the time of the Peloponnesian War, only ruins of the temple remained when it was visited by the Spartan misthios Kassandra, who recovered various treasures therein.^[2]

Despite the ruins being dedicated to Kybele, the statue used in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is commonly associated with the Greek goddess Hera.
