    Erratic boulder, since time immemorial linked to fertility cults - in the past women came to rest their stomachs on the rock to ensure their children's fertility and good health. It can be reached without too much effort from Cavoretto or by descending from the Colle della Maddalena road; the direct climb from Moncalieri is already more impactful. If the day is nice, the streets offer a beautiful view of Turin.

    an interesting reference is with the Irish Saint Brigid, Bridget, who probably syncretises the very ancient mother goddess Brighid of the Celtic religion
