Menhir San Paolo

The menhir of San Paolo is about 2.25 m tall and features smoothed faces. The orientation of the faces is wider on the east-west axis. It stands on a rocky outcrop within which was excavated the crypt of San Paolo. At the top there's a hole, likely to house a cross. Its name is derived from the underlying byzantine cave dedicated to San Paolo: inside is a fresco representing the tarantula, the famous poisonous spider whose bite infects women, the "tarantate" of which San Paolo is patron.
