- The first one north of Moosehorn Rd, including one cluster of large platform piles and separate clusters of ground piles and of gridden marker piles. I think this is several different sites in the same vicinity.
- A site where the open view shows the valley to the east with crossed pairs and rock-on-rocks.
- The Freeman Rd site with effigies or are they just walls and piles? Also supported piles and an outline.
- Cooleyville Rd - a gridded marker pile site with a large platform at the lower end of the site.
- The minor field clearing [?] piles beside the road and next to a brook.
- A minor site in a wetland on the bend of Prescott Rd.
- Gate XX where the wonderful "turtle" occurs along with clusters of supported piles at the brookside.

Maybe over a long period of time.
That heavy concentration of sites also seems to occur in Monroe County. Why some places . . .
What group of people is said to be native to your area?
Several different groups - named "tribes" by Europeans, claim central Mass. The name I associate with that region is Nipmunk.
