Coimo's cup stone
Coimo's cup stone submitted by ilsignorstano : Site in Piemonte Coimo's cup stone (Vote or comment on this photo)
Christianised Cup and Ring marks in Piemonte. Cup stone embedded in the wall of St. Ambrogio church in Coimo village, Vigezzo valley, near Domodossola. The church stands probably on the site of a pagan temple, following the local behaviour to convert pagan cultual sites to christian ones, keeping a "faith continuum".

The cross carved on the stone indicates the "exauguration" of the site from pagan cult to christian one.

(In the description I forgot to rate the ambience. Is simply a church slightly outside a small village. The stone is not marked in any way. Only people that know what is it can recognize it.)
