The Story of the Stones

I think we all spotted that outside most houses in the Utena district, rocks/boulders were placed, some were huge.  I was told that Utena/Lithuania is mostly forest, lakes, marshes and has little or no stone, so they go out and find some and bring it back.  Also I heard that in the 14C you had by law to feed anyone turning up on your doorstep, so people would block the road off leading to their farm to keep the rich off their land in their wheeled carriages.

If you have any photos like this can you please upload them.


thanks C
This is the entrance to the woodcarvers house.. it was build over a stone.
