Legend about the native land of gnomes
Ancient Greek geographer Gerodot in V a century B.C. named people
living in these grounds, Grumanty... " All men at them miners, very low, but
strong. Have the third eye on a stomach "... Probably so to him slaves -
Scythians described the oil fixture which used Grumanty in an operating time
under the ground and which ran after on a long chain to itself.
When in the beginning of our era through these
grounds passed hordes Guns, they in the first fight have crushed army Grumanty.
The escaped soldiers have addressed to gods and have asked, what by him now to
make? Gods have told, that they should
go to a way and search for the most beautiful place on the Earth, only there
they can win barbarians.
Long, pursued by the enemy, wandered Grumanty.
But once they have left on coast of fantastically fine lake, and their leader,
having seen him, has exclaimed: "Turgojak", that meant “ Stop a leg ”. Here on
coast of lake Grumanty have broken group Guns pursuing them, and hordes of
barbarians have left from their ground, having continued the way is farther on
the West.
Guns, through two hundred
years have brought to the German tribes living on borders of Roman empire a name
of this people. And sounding, for one thousand years before, in language of
ancient Greeks as Grumanty, it began to sound in language of ancient germen as
Gnomes.
