See the big rock is in line with a line of rocks that comes up from the left and goes off towards the water to the right of of the rock. A small rock pile is visible in the foreground. Here is a closer view of the big rock:
Some other things nearby, included more piles:
And more little lines of rocks leading towards the water:
It is all very indistinct. Call it what you like, native American or colonial European, this is a little archeological site with no obious interpretation. The only familiar sight is stone lines running over a ridge and down towards water.If that is going to be the theme, I might as well put this here. A picture, also from those same Groton Woods, of a short stretch of stone wall
I'd give it the "Indian Look" label. That last photo of the stone row has the big end stone at the lower towards the water (fresh or salt marsh, you didn't say?)and is something I see all the time. Those are two different ( but the same kinda stone) boulders in the first and second photo, right?
ReplyDeleteThe second one looks sort of "sculptural" to me, a great turtle face perhaps...
It is the same boulder in the first two pictures.
