| Description: | Suleyman tells us about a shepherd in the village called Isa, who once found a treasure in the rock. The rock opened and became a tunnel to a cave. He found a big treasure. He only took a vase of dinars of it and hid it in another place. One day, the shepherd thought that he should return the vase to the cave. The rock opened again, and when he came out of it, the rock would not open again. He eventually brought three persons before it. One of them was the priest of the village, who has a book of sorcery. When the priest looked in the book to find a solution, ie. to open the rock again, he said that treasure is cursed. If they force open it, then one person would kill the priest, and the third one would kill the one who killed the priest. They therefore left the treasure alone. Suleyman believes that the treasure is still in its place. | |
