This 2m tall stone stela weighing 1,4t was found inside the archaeological location at Libenice in early 1960s. Because of its precise placing there, it is suppose to be the menhir. The site is about 60km east from Prague.
After examination the stone was moved to the courtyard of archeological institute in Prague's Malá Strana where it stands till now.
