The Legend twelfth
... about the origin of Burial mounds.
There was a dense forest on the territory where Maykop is now.
Nor far from Belaya River 5 brothers lived in the hut. Their names were: Oshad, Arym, Chenchaushkho, Kolyasizh, Chemdezh. They had a sister, a beautiful girl Susdo by name. Djigit Kozheub stole the girl with her consent. But the brothers didn't like it.
And they flashed for runners. But Kozheub was strong, quick and good shot. Four brothers fell down from their horses and died. The last of brothers Chemdezh stayed alone. His well - aimed arrow reached the killer and thief. But Oshad died from wound.
Auls' inhabitants poured the burial mounds on the places where the young men died. And gave them the names of brothers.
Oshad is the famous Maykopsky burial mound, Arym is near stanitsa Kuzhorskaya, Chenchaushkho is not far from the aul Khachemzy, Chemdezh and Kolyasizh are near the aul Koshekhabl. But nobody knows where Kozheub's tomb is.
