Summary

Description
Español: Pobiti Kamani ("Bosque de piedra"), Provincia de Varna, Bulgaria. A Pobiti Kamani se le considera el único desierto en Bulgaria y uno de los pocos de Europa y es desde los años 1930 un monumento natural en Bulgaria. El desierto consiste en dunas de arena y diferentes grupos de formaciones rocosas repartidas en un área de 13 km2. Las formaciones rocosas son principalmente columnas de piedra de entre 5-7 m de alto y entre 0.3-3 m de grueso. Hay diferentes teorías sobre el origen de las columnas, que pueden dividirse en dos vertientes: las que sugieren un origen orgánico (actividad de coral) o abiótico (meteorización prismática y desertificación de las rocas, formación de arena y concreciones de arena y caliza, o arrecifes en forma de burbuja del Ypresiense).
Български: Побити камъни, Варна, България
English: Pobiti Kamani, Varna province, Bulgaria. Pobiti Kamani is considered the only desert in Bulgaria and one of few found in Europe and is a natural landmark in Bulgaria since the 1930s. The desert consists of sand dunes and several groups of natural rock formations on a total area of 13 square kilometres (5.0 sq mi). The formations are mainly stone columns between 5–7 metres (16–23 ft) high and from 0.3–3 metres (0.98–9.84 ft) thick. There are a number of theories regarding the phenomenon's origin. The pioneering hypothesis can be divided roughly into two groups: suggesting an organic (coral activity) or abiotic (prismatic weathering and desertification of the rocks, formation of sand and limestone concretions, or lower Eocene bubbling reefs) origin.
Polski: Kamienny Las (bułg. Побити камъни) w obwodzie Warna, w Bułgarii. Kamienny Las jest jedyną pustynią w Bułgarii, jedną z niewielu w Europie i jest uznawany za pomnik przyrody od lat 30. XX wieku. Pustynia składa się z wydm oraz formacji skalnych o łącznej powierzchni 13 km². Formacje skalne to głównie kamienne kolumny o wysokości 5–7 m i grubości 0,3–3 m. Istnieje wiele teorii na temat ich pochodzenia. Można je z grubsza podzielić na dwie grupy: sugerujące pochodzenie organiczne (wskutek działalności koralowców) oraz sugerujące pochodzenie abiotyczne (wietrzenie skał, tworzenie się piaskowych i wapiennych konkrecji, zimne wysięki z okresu dolnego eocenu).
