Kauči or Old Pattern Pine Battle site

The pine tree is located on the left side of the Strenči-Valka highway, approximately a kilometer beyond the Strenči border, 140 meters from the highway, in a forest, 400 meters NW of Kauči.

A piece of the tree's rough bark was torn out and the lyrics of the song were carved into the trunk with a knife in old Latvian print, which are now partially legible – ˝ …c mīliotā / …ten līzi cīn… / … nāvīgo as… / …ņa mēs a… / …dz tūsiti / … trādniek…˝ ("Come, beloved girl, to the fight, take the deadly blade in your hand. We, the workers, have suffered much.").

Researchers have suggested that this poem could have been engraved on the trunk of a pine tree between 1905 and 1918, when Latvia was going through revolution and World War I, according to experts from the Latvian State Forests.
