The temple dedicated to Hermes was known as the "Hermesion" or "Hermes Temple." One of the most famous examples is the Temple of Hermes at Olympia, which housed a cult statue of Hermes. This temple was significant in ancient Greek religion, as Hermes was revered as the messenger of the gods and the protector of travelers and merchants.
I do not know of a Miaia related to Hermes. However, the mother of Hermes was called Maia.
The Temple of Hermes was built using a combination of local stone and marble, featuring a classic Greek architectural style with a rectangular layout. It typically included a colonnade of columns, a cella (inner chamber), and an altar. The construction involved skilled laborers and artisans who meticulously crafted the structure, often dedicating it to the worship of Hermes, the messenger god. Over time, the temple would have undergone renovations and restorations to maintain its grandeur.
Hermes did not have temples. His statue was placed everywhere, and square blocks of marble showing a head and the male genitalia were called "Herms" and set up in many places. On these statues, Hermes is generally shown with a beard. However, the capital town of the Greek island of Syros is named Ermoupolis (City of Hermes) which may indicate a special reverence for the god there in ancient times.
