The columnar separateness is the geological name for basaltic polyhedral pillars

The columnar separation is the geological name for basalt polyhedral pillars, "when the mountains rise as a pillar" and "lava" turns into regular polyhedra.

According to the ancient legend, the battle of the Irish warrior Finn McCool with the giant from Scotland Goll was to take place. But they were separated by the ocean. Finn McCool decided to build a bridge, for which he tore huge stones from the coastal rocks, threw them into the sea and drove huge columns. So there was a 25-mile road, all the way to Scotland. After work, Finn went to bed, and Goll came to the shores of Ireland. Finn's cunning wife wrapped her husband in a blanket and convinced the Scotsman that the sleeping giant Finn was just his son. "If Fin's son is so big, then what would his father be like?" he terrified, looking at the "baby" and rushed out, destroying the bridge along the way. As a result, only a part of the basalt columns, located off the coast of Ireland and on the Scottish island of Staffa, remained.

In Norse mythology, basalt is associated with the fiery giant Surt, the ruler of the world of eternal flame. Fire was not only a destructive force, but also a symbol of purification and renewal. The sword of Surt is heated to white and illuminates everything around. When Ragnarok is the end of the world, Surt will lead an army of fiery giants and his sword will destroy the old order. This fire will leave behind fertile ashes on which the garden will grow, symbolizing the ability to overcome difficulties, burn the old and create new ones.

In landscape design, this concept can be embodied as a “garden of transformation” – a space where a person feels warmth and energy.

The diameter of basalt columns in different parts of the earth varies from a few centimeters to a meter. "Devil's pillars" are found in California, in the Rivne region, on the Kuril Islands. In Iceland, basalt pillars are also pronounced on routes saturated with other natural "miracles".
