History: Written Stone
This stone was engraved during the 6th century to recall the passage of Dardanus, powerful man, Christian and prefect of Gaul, corresponding with St-Augustin, , who came to retire to St-Geniez to found a "City of God" in the valley. A place bears the name of "Théous", but did "Theopolis" ever exist? And where exactly?

[Trek] Sentier de la Pierre Ecrite (written stone)
From the Pierre Écrite, follow the trail that climbs to the left for about 20 minutes.
At the end of the trail, near the old oak tree, take the forest road to the right. Continue along the road until you reach the Whale Rock, where you’ll find the intersection with the departmental road.
Turn left onto the road toward Aigues Champs to visit the Whale Lookout (a geological curiosity).
Take the same route as on the way there until you reach point 3, then follow the road for 800 meters to return to the parking lot.
