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.

Split-wedged rocks from Texas Str. Westford
Went out with FFC (something getting rarer and rarer) and he managed to find things even where there was nothing to see - along the conservation land trail that starts near the end of Texas Rd in southern Westford. A bunch of quarrying debris, had been tidied up with wedges put into the splits: I joked with FFC , that creating an opening to the underworld then leaving it un-plugged, must have been regarded by the Indians as exactly the kind of stupidity you could expect from the Anglos.
