The Stone of Destiny
The Stone of Destiny – Камень судьбы.
По преданию камень судьбы был привезен из Святой земли более четырех тысяч лет тому назад. На протяжении веков все шотландские короли короновались на Камне судьбы. Более семисот лет назад, в ХIII веке, английский король Эдуард I похитил этот священный камень у шотландцев, деясь что без него они не смогут короновать своих правителей и воинственная Шотландия, наконец, утратит независимость. Камень был привезен в Лондон в Вестминстерское аббатство и помещен под королевский трон.
С тех пор все короли Англии короновались на этом Камне. Однако Эдуард ошибся: похищение Камня только подогрело ненависть шотландцев к завоевателям, война между ними продолжалась еще много лет, и шотландцы не раз предпринимали попытки вернуть похищенную реликвию.
