In the village of Bogdanovka latter has a well documented area of the Arkhangelsk region 100 metres from the road, near the stream, there is an amazing stone. The stone resembles a beam of length 1, 5 and a height of about 1 meter. The top and side faces of the stone is flat, and the impression that it is carved by human hand. At the same time, the side faces of the stone lowered to the bottom base so that the top width of 75 inches, and the bottom is about 1 meter. His upper base parallel to the ground. The stone is oriented so that the outstanding from lands end it is directed to the Creek to the North. In the upper area of the yard you can see the wedge-shaped notches, quite different from the natural fractures and cavities, which are caused by the influence of natural factors.
Where did and how did this stone, no one knows. All its contours indicate that it represents some ancient, mysterious monument of history. Most likely, the definition of its accessories associated with the latter has a well documented history of the development of the region. Her analysis leads to the events of thousands of years, to the days of living in these parts of the chudes Zabolotskii (Finno-Ugric population of Zavoloka, first mentioned in the Tale of bygone years).
Looking around, the focus is on the niche in the land of stone. It seems like here the land began to fall into some kind of underground abyss. Maybe the stone marked the location of the dugout in which are buried or samosohranenie Chud. But the area around abounds with stones. Dugout here to dig hard and quite impractical. In ancient times, in the spring, the Creek was over flowing and just poured her. Probably this depression formed due to the natural drift of the stone land on the other side.
Perhaps the stone is a remnant of the sanctuary of the population Chud. Currently these shrines found no one in the town of Koxinga. Tarnogskaâ local historian A. A. Ugryumov observed that Chud had special temples (MOLISA), which places a pagan sacrifice to Jamalu – its chief God. These Mollusca unfolded among a huge fir trees. Between them was a huge stone and 2 smaller ones, exhibited a variety of wooden and stone idols. On a large stone carved in the image of God, captions, and various symbols. For example, scientists have discovered a temple with inscriptions in Kokenge they still can't decipher.
In this cleared area spruce grow, but 2 visible small stones are not visible. However, higher up, at a distance of about 20 meters, there is Kamenica of stones, nevoennyh top. Maybe they are part of Kamenica, and a niche in a man-made stone – like groove from one of them. Peipsi temples were traditionally higher elevations. This is true in the valley of the Creek, but on the slope of one of the two large eel, between which runs a stream.
Over the past 100 years this stone is called "Hot". In the summer, at night, came to him a youth. Stone almost did not cool down until dawn. It was the rendezvous of lovers, where they were admitted to their bright and pure intentions. Perhaps to this day the "Hot" stone Peipsi is God, who became a Christian Shrine, if he was touched the Church, then he is fulfilling his sacred mission – to spread among people peace and goodness.
