The knight stone is supposed to remind of a wolf pit, that was a trap for catching wolves. The wolves tore sheep and there was a wolf premium for a caught wolf.

This is one of over 300 knight's stones of the Palatinate Forest Association. He stands by a tree, in the middle of a 5-way intersection. There is a nice rest …

According to the wiki, the wolf was extinct in most regions of present-day Germany by the 18th century, but by 2018/19 there were again a total of 105 packs, 25 pairs and 13 territorial individuals in eleven federal states.
All Little Red Riding Hoods: watch out!

"Kaut" = Old German term for: depression, trough or depression (according to the Internet).
