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.
I'm so excited to have discovered your blog! I'm the author of 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Boston and share all of your enthusiasms. I love encountering old stone walls in the woods and imagining the landscape when they were built. It amazes me to think of the incredible amount of sweat that went into hauling the stones around to clear the fields and keep in the cows.
