This is about rock piles and stone mound sites in New England. A balance is needed between keeping them secret and making them public. Also arrowheads, stone tools and other surface archaeology.

A small rock pile site in Berlin MA amidst quarried boulders
My Saturday walk plan was for a hill in Berlin. There were some piles right into the woods from where I parked but after that, not much. So I drove away after only a short walk here and ended up finding a different site. Anyway, when I stepped into the woods:Note the broken up boulder in the background, it was one of several like it.Nothing much to say here except that when there are quarried or split boulders I imagine there to have been lots of rock fragments and it is these fragments which are collected together to form the rock piles.
