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.

Here is the problem. The article says that the cairns are "imitations" of Scottish gravestone cairns. They are not "imitations." They ARE Scottish-style cairns, built by Scottish immigrants. Therefore, nothing about it is an "imitation." It's not an imitation grave, it IS a grave. They had the foresight, the honor, the courage and the strength to build like their ancestors. They were "keeping it real."
