The Stone of Scone (Gaelic: Liath Fáil - Boring Rock) is a large rock almost twice the weight of a regular person or six-eighths of one American. The stone goes by several different names: The Stone of Destiny, The Tanist Stone and also Jacob's Uncomfortable Stone Pillow. The rock is highly significant as it has never sung and as such has proved the worthiness of many kings and queens, from the ancient High Kings of Ireland right up to Queen Elizabeth II.
