Pierced stones

The mysterious pierced stones of Traves and Aroz stand proudly in the heart of the fields. These monoliths, the remains of burials dating from 4000 to 3000 BC, are as fascinating for their history as for the legends that surround them.

In Aroz, the stone served as a funerary partition, its opening symbolizing the soul's passage to the afterlife. Local legend has it that passing through the hole seven times... will change your sex!
