Oxen dragging stones

The "idi probak" (that means "Oxen events" in Basque language), or events of oxen dragging stones, are one of the typical varieties of Basque Rural Sport. Their origin should be searched in the bets made by different farmhouses in order to settle which one had the best pair of oxen. In this type of events, two oxen joined by a yoke, by turns, must drag a huge stone the maximum number of times in a given time. Please, click here for more info (and here or here to understand what is happening in this set).
