Description: | Gevriye tells us about an incident when a man was building a house and he asked the youth to help him with rolling a big stone to his house. 20 youth helped him rolling it for 100 metres and they had a break before rolling it another 50 metres to reach the house. A passing woman cast an evil eye on it by saying, why did you not make this big stone in four pieces before bringing it? The standing stone burst into pieces by itself. | |
