The stone is one of the pagan sanctuaries, where in ancient times they worshiped the god of the animal world, fertility, prosperity, good luck and creative inspiration - Veles. Currently, the temple continues to operate. So, in mid-February, admirers of the ancients come to the Veles stone (or "Volos") traditions to celebrate "Valossa" - the pagan analogue of Maslenitsa.
