Rural heritage

In Lou Balo Cubo dialect, the monolith is shaped like an elongated semicircle. A 30 cm-wide step is cut into the interior. On the opposite side, a notch in the stone allows the overflow to drain away. This basin always holds water, even in very dry weather. Some believe the basin dates back to the time of Julius Caesar. Another legend has it that, after being moved by the villagers, the ferry returned to its place by itself.
