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.

That first link to a rock pile excavation in Georgia is interesting. They conclude thatto know rock piles as farming related - just show they are more recent than 1800. I don't think so. Indians did not stop existing around then.
ReplyDeleteAnother comment: note the discussion of vandalism parallels a discussion we had (transcribed into this blog below).
Also note their statement about donation piles being along trails. They fail to match that with their own site plan.
On the plus side: note that donation piles may occur where someone died if not necessarily where they are buried. I think that is an important point. Rock piles can mark battlefields as opposed to graveyards.
