    There are heaps of burnt stones found in most of the farms and they were always found near spring water. It is said that the Danes used make wine out of the stones but they told the secret to no one.
    There is a legend told of an old man and his son who were the last of the Danes. The old man said that his son had the secret of how to make the wine, the son would not tell them the secret and they kiled him, and the father said they could kill him too.
