In this episode of The Atlas Obscura Podcast, we visit the Stone of Destiny, a giant rock that has supposedly been used in the coronation of every English monarch since the 1300s. But is it authentic? Or could the real one be in this Scottish bar? We weigh the evidence.

Our podcast is an audio guide to the world’s wondrous, awe-inspiring, strange places. In under 15 minutes, we’ll take you to an incredible site, and along the way you’ll meet some fascinating people and hear their stories. Join us daily, Monday through Thursday, to explore a new wonder with cofounder Dylan Thuras and a neighborhood of Atlas Obscura reporters.
