Small Ground Piles on Oak Hill Littleton, MA

Oak Hill is a big piece of the landscape out west of here. If you drive west on Rt 2, this is the long hill you climb just west of Rt 495. I went to the backside of this hill to explore around the edges of Tophet Casm. Somewhere up there on the gradual slope of the hilltop there was a quadrangle of stone walls with eight or ten ground piles. I might think these are burials except for a couple of minor inconsistencies - mostly that the view northward and the woods here are dry. Burials are more associated to views westward and to views over water. So I think this may be a different type of site. Just low small piles covered with leaves.There was one example of a supported pile. All the others were directly on the ground.
