Bakhchisaray menhir

Bakhchisaray menhir stone
Crimea, Bakhchysarai
Near Bakhchisarai, in a gully on the northern slopes of the inner ridge, there is a vertical four-meter stone, it is not known when, by whom and for what purpose it was placed. This object is even marked on the topographic map as a noticeable and eternal landmark. The Bakhchisaray menhir is a roughly hewn stone block of roughly rectangular shape. Assumptions that this is just a broken piece of rock are unconvincing: firstly, the nearest rock mass is several hundred meters away, and secondly, it is monolithic and there are no hints that in the foreseeable future some pieces. In the end, even if we assume that this fragment once broke off and slid down the slope, then, according to the laws of universal gravitation, it should have floated on the ground long ago, and not show off on the slope of the beam in a strictly vertical position.
