The round stone

Description

If you go into the scrubland to reach the cliff, you will see by looking, a round stone carved into the rock. In the past, man would carve into the cliff to create wheels for the mills to grind grains or to crush olives. This unfinished wheel has been around probably since the 17th century. It is said that cliff carving was done in the winter, stone carvers would put water into the holes around the stone. The water would freeze allowing the stone to break.
