Pictures of the small cairn Gi has found in Rhinebeck, and close-up of the hammerstone at the
original cairn which shows small indentations. One picture includes a water bottle as a way of
providing scale--

Even the small one doesn't look so small. Is that a rock pile in the foreground of the third picture?
It looks like a wall with a break in it. I am wondering if the break is deliberate or damage.
I believe the break is where the lines of the cairn meet a stone wall, not sure whether the break is deliberate.
The way I think of it is: would those stone rows define a mast forest - a resource zone of nuts (since you may have found that kind of tool) and also the animals that eat them?
Do ant old maps exist that suggest the history of land use of the area? Do these rows lead to something else?
