"The sacred stone piles on Mohegan Hill are a critical feature of the traditional landscape of Mohegan Hill; they were created by the “Little People” who live deep within the ground of Mohegan Hill. These “Little People” or Makiawisug are the ancient culture heroes of this region. These stone piles also possess powers that protect the Mohegan people from outsiders. Not only do the “Little People” still live within the ground on the Hill and continue to guard the stones, these stone piles are perceived as being made of the bones of Mother Earth and they contain messages that guide generation after generation of Mohegan People. Contemporary Mohegan tribal members make offerings to the “Little People” in hopes that they will continue to protect our Tribe."

Poppycock
Why do you say that?? ....Narrow minds want to know....
Indeed they may one day realize that some of these stones may be stone fossils, guardian spirits of the People, and are, in some sense, to those who can perceive it, animate.

Maybe indigenous knowledge is so profound and beyond the constricted bounds of Western thought that it can appear to be poppycock to those unwilling to think outside the Western box. Western culture seems to be the least successful and most destructive culture in human history.
