Espada tengo. Lo demás, Dios lo remedie.
In the west almost all Spain had been subjugated, except that part which adjoins the cliffs where the Pyrenees end and is washed by the nearer waters of the ocean. Here two powerful nations, the Cantabrians and the Asturians, lived in freedom from the rule of Rome.")

Huelgoat forest, Brittany:
The legend associated with it:
Callanish stones, ScotlandIn ancient times, so it is told, a giant called Garguantua stopped in the forest of Huelgoat where he was suddenly struck by a terrible hunger.
The locals were very miserable (or perhaps just poor) and only offered him a thin porridge which, one suspects, did not sate his hunger.
He continued on his way to the Léon region and found some more people who served him a hearty meal.
Later as he was strolling along the coast, he lost his temper and hurled some large rocks that he found on the shore towards Huelgoat, thus forming the fantastic chaos of moss covered boulders that you can see littering the forest today!
An innovative method of how some people on the atlantic facade made fire before the advent of iron using flint, marcasite (iron pyrite) and dried fungus:
