αὐτὰ μὲν δὴ τὰ ἱερεῖα ἐν μέρει τῷ κάτω, τῇ προθύσει, καθέστηκεν αὐτοῖς θύειν· τοὺς μηροὺς δὲ ἀναφέροντες ἐς τοῦ βωμοῦ τὸ ὑψηλέστατον καθαγίζουσιν ἐνταῦθα.

The first clause is elliptical/difficult: αὐτὰ τὰ ἱερεῖα is the subject, with καθέστηκεν functioning as ‘are set/appointed’ and αὐτοῖς θύειν as an infinitival purpose/complement. In the second clause, τοὺς μηρούς is the object of ἀναφέροντες and καθαγίζουσιν; τὸ ὑψηλέστατον is substantivized accusative, the destination/objective elevation of the altar.
