Wawel Heads

One market day, when merchants from distant lands arrived to the Wawel castle, people crowded around their stalls to view the beautiful and useful objects they had to offer. Suddenly, screams and commotion rose among the crowd, “Thief! Help! Catch!” cried the merchant who was well-known across the country for his marvelous handmade belts. The shoplifter took advantage of the artisan’s inattention and grabbed a beautifully ornate belt from his table.
