The Rock

The rock has a great significance in the history of the Anzere community. In the olden days, most of the people were hunters. Whenever a hunter got a big catch, the meat was shared among the community. That was a standing order. Once a king was accused of eating a lion alone. Out of anger, he struck the rock and left the community with his whole family. Civilization has changed a lot of things. Later, it used to be where men gathered to do their spiritual rituals.
