sacred stone
Venerated mineral object
A sacred stone is a rock or boulder believed to hold spiritual power, often serving as a site for worship, ritual, or pilgrimage.
Many cultures have venerated particular stones—from the Black Stone at Mecca to standing stones at ancient Celtic sites.
The sacredness may derive from the stone's origin, location, or association with divine events: Pilgrims touched the sacred stone seeking blessing.
