I found a new rockpile in Redding CT. You were right these things are everywhere! Found even more in Sharon but too dense with leaves to capture images at this point.
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.
Nice pile, Brent!
ReplyDeleteYes, very nice platform cairn, and similar to ones in Killingworth and Hopkinton, RI. It also looks similar to cairns I've seen in Washington, MA, which is not that far from Sharon as the crow flies.
ReplyDeleteSharon is quite a way from Redding, and I wonder if the cairns Brent found there are similar to the one illustrated from Redding.

Is that a collapsed hole in the middle? There are holes in the middle of a couple in Hopkinton.
ReplyDeleteNorman, it also reminds me of some of the rock piles at Hackettstown.
