Nabi or Navi stone in Santiago Cathedral coming from Mount of Beatitudes, Holy Land

I have come across a bizzare claim, that the Cathedral of Santiago harbours an ancient holy stone, called "Nabi" or "Navi", and that this stone is said to have originated from the Mount of Beattitudes, Near the lake of Galilee, Israel. Has anybody heard or read anything about such a stone?

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Nabi/Navi means "prophet" in Hebrew, but I'm afraid that's as far as my knowledge extends. I haven't heard this legend.
