I bumped into this site while I was running down a hill with my son. And I’ve immediatly thought:“Hmm...those stones...“.

A spring surrounded by stones that gives water to a quiet softly-singing stream.
A short path (surrounded by stones too) that leads, from the spring, to a partial circle of stones.
Few big stones scattered all around.

But I don’t go back there anymore because it’s on a private propriety and year by year some stones are caught and carried away to be re-used for buildings.
And I can’t stand it, but there’s nothing I can do against it yet.

In Ceresa, on the banks of a stream (nearby, on the opposite banks, stands Ceresa 1’s menhir) there’s this flat stone.

Three meters long, with only two engraved small cups.

A very simple and delicate cult of waters. Let me say...something very female.

From a pastoral culture.

In Maudagna Valley, on a hill overlooking the town of Frabosa Sottana, at the south of Maudagna Valley’s engraved stone and not far from it. There’s this Sacred Area with two barrows and three menhirs.

The site it’s been discovered by Mr. Sergio Piazzo.

At the north of the village called Faie (Faires), along the track that leads to Monte Beigua, there’s this typical altar stone. On top of a small hill with a cup’s shaped engrave and a short and little drainage canal.

I found it because it was described in a book writted by Mr. Italo Pucci and Mr. Ausilio Priuli.
