Presentation of: PIERRE A CUPULES DE LA CROIX CANTIN
According to legend, the round cupules are imprints of Saint Vital's crozier, the rectangular cupules are where he placed his breviary and the oval cupules are Saint Vital's footsteps. The shape of a cross can be seen at the end of the rock.
A cupule is a circular hollow made by man (especially prehistoric man) in the surface of a slab or rock. These are known as "cup stones".
