It is a stone that hollow, concave shape, when touched on any object makes a sound like the tolling of a bell, there is derives its name. Being in the midst of deep water channel ships have to pass by being careful not to touch it by attributing special mysteries. Underfoot or touch it immediately starts the river (Atabapo) to start picking at that time a heavy storm, which wrecks the boats.

When not doing the above explained and left him tribute (meat from Amazonas fauna, cassava, manioc, etc..) Yielded a smooth journey without obstacles of any kind.

Today the belief in this myth has come to the advancement of culture throughout the federal territory Amazons.

Travelers are fun to listen to their characteristics hitting sound and not a storm happens.
