Salta´s Legend

-17 °C

By Macacha, Hola-yosoy@argentina.com
The old people of the place says that Esteco was a very rich city. That all there was made of gold and of silver. That people were bad and proud. That when someone predicted them that the city will get lost for a tremor they deceived and they went to the stores to buy bands of color tremor. When they dropped something of silver they didn't bend over to pick up it. It is said that God came and predicted the punishment and asked for somewhere to stay at.
Only a very poor woman put up him and she believed him. When Esteco got lost, God left the city with the woman and her baby. He had ask her that she must not give turn, but the woman turn to have a view of the city and she became stone.
Twice Esteco has gotten lost, the city has been in two parts. They say that the first Esteco has collapsed in a lagoon. The other Esteco has collapsed in the earth for an earthquake and now there is not but that mount.
