According to legend, the 8th-century Krakus Mound is the grave of Prince Krak, the founder of Kraków. Also according to legend, he was a humble cobbler who slew a dragon which lived under the Wawel hill, not by brute force but by intelligence: he enticed the dragon to eat a sheep stuffed with sulphur, after which it exploded. This feat of course entitled him to marry the princess, and they all lived happily ever after.
