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.

Revisiting a site in Boxborough
What I recommended re-reading here mentions a site in Boxborough near Wolf Swamp with a central mound and another site in Leominster where a curve of 3 rock-on-rock structures led up to a central mound. I went back to visit the Boxborough site and was reminded that there are actually 2 mounds with hollows and they are "joined" by a curve of 3 rock-on-rocks. So these sites had one or more mound with a hollow, curves of small structures connected to them, and outlying marker piles.Some of these mounds have one nice chunk of quartz somewhere on their outer surface.
