OK folks... Give us a name of a character which is carved into the rock and the name of the river in which he stares.


[edit] Let's get it right this time.

The largest rock sculpture in Europe represents Decebalus, the last king of the Dacians, who, according to the general accepted legend, committed suicide after the defeat by the Romans.

And how am I suppose to declare the winner now? Ok, since the first question was much harder to answer, the winner is Jonh with honourable mention to arkayn and very special praise to Angela who PM'ed me the answer minutes after I posted the question but chose not to participate in the game.

I don't know, my friend. The reason I posted this answer publicly is that I was not sure that I got it right...
