The ‘King in the Mountain’ belief is one of my favourite folklore tropes and is found across Europe & the world. Highly mysterious, this idea remains very popular in many countries and usually involves a heroic figure resting/sleeping (not dead) in a place of beauty or significance. Often they’re alone, but are believed to lie in wait with their armies in many cases. It’s believed that one day they will awaken and save their people and restore/usher in a golden age.
Some examples include:

🇬🇧 King Arthur

🇮🇪 Fionn Mac Cumhaill

🇩🇪 Barbarossa

🇱🇹 Vytautas the Great

🇫🇮 Väinämöinen

🇪🇸 King Pelayo

🇵🇱 Bolesław the Great

Next spring/summer I plan to visit my homeland with my son. I am wondering if anybody is interested in helping to organize some type of folk gathering at megalithic sites. Combining music, sacred sites, ancestral spirituality and native folk. I have this vision that keeps coming. The stones are going to be important, again.
