== Legend == The icon of Archangel has been considered as the main patron of the village Mutso during the centuries. The icon was kept on the mount Daquekhi () (mountain Tebulosmta, ) which is always covered by snow. People of the village were not able to go to the icon and pray there. They sacrificed an ox and asked the icon to come down to a more accessible place. The icon heard the prayer and moved to a holy place in Khone. After that, people started praying there.
