It is also thought that the Spring when the grass was green and all things fresh, families would come from far away to offer their worldly goods & chant their prayers.
The Indians would ask the great Spirit, through the rock, for certain blessings: "A safe journey, Happiness in marriage, Good health, or a successful hunt."
Before going on the warpath, the warriors would stop and offer their devotions, Coming back they would offer a portion of their spoils of battle and pray for their fallen comrades. The prayers were not to the rock itself, but through the rock to the one who placed it there.
