La 'piera da l'aga' (pietra dell'acqua) di Ciago di Meduno (PN) è la base pressoria di un torchio vinario di epoca romana - una leggenda popolare vuole che il grosso monolite giacesse un tempo in mezzo al prato e che, spostato tramite l'aiuto di una coppia di buoi, fosse ritrovato il giorno seguente al posto di partenza. Solo in seguito ad un nuovo tentativo il masso ri¬mase nella nuova collocazione.Una seconda leggenda racconta, invece, che Ciago è stata in passato una "grande città", protetta dai quattro castelli di Meduno, Toppo, Cavasso e Solimbergo. La credenza è stata originata dal frequente ritrovamento, nella pianura ad Ovest e a Sud del borgo, di fondamenta di antiche case e dei resti di numerose tombe di epoca romana.Una vecchia consuetudine locale voleva che l'acqua piovana raccoltasi nelle quattro coppelle fosse benefica alla vista; veniva perciò toc¬cata dalle contadine di passaggio prima di fare il segno della croce, mentre mormoravano una preghiera.
