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.
On the modern over-grazed cultural landscape, very few. On the ancient humanized landscape, before 1492, I'd guess "lots more." There were lots more people living there too way back then...

I wonder how common turtles are in California. Probably not very.
