The local people call it “Dickily tash”. It is a lonely, distinctive crag that resembles a human figure. The following legend is known about it: One man decided to rest next to a water fountain. He chose to eat in the shades, took the bread, cheese, walnuts and some grapes out of his bag, had some water, and after being fully sated, decided to go off. A bite of bread remained on his lap, but since the man was already full, he threw it away. It is a great sin to desecrate the bread, though. That’s why, the Mother Nature turned the man instantly into a stone, and the stone still stands today, solitary, next to the water fountain.
