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.

Split wedged rock from California
Another photo from Ron Smith, taken in the Sutter Buttes (click to enlarge, so you can see into the crack).
Well, we now know that split filled boulders, rows connecting boulders, and propped boulders are found throughout North America, and even in Europe. I suppose this could be explained by the common animistic religion found in these cultures world wide. Can these examples also be found in Japan, for example?
How long before PW also found a similarity at Ron's site?
ReplyDeleteNot very.
(A boulder split to look a turtle?)
