ABSTRACT

Three Brothers Peak is located at Pratti, a fief of Borgetto, and this isits story.Once three brothers set out to gather soup greens, each with a sack on his back and a knife in his hand. They had only one piece of bread between them and began quarrelling over who would get to eat first. They grew angrier and angrier with one other until finally they began cursing. At this point the Lord intervened and turned them into three masses of rock, each having a sack on its back and a knife in its hand. If you look at them close up, you can make out their original shapes before they became stone, one of them being bigger, the second smaller, and the third the smallest of all. Told by Vincenzo Rappa in Borgetto.
