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 don't know how people can imagine that ancient stonework in America was made by someone other than ancient people in America. A people we call "the ancestors of today's Native Americans".
ReplyDeleteThe proposition that European visitors created stonework but are not Native American requires us to suppose those Europeans disappeared afterward leaving America or dying out.
I agree. There could be some far northern European blood mixed in with native Americans, but that is part of the mixture of who the indigenous people are, and it is the indigenous people who built the sites.
ReplyDeleteEver notice how these ideas move in cycles? We go through a period of craziness, when half baked ideas come to the fore, and then there will be a return to rationalism, followed by a downturn. We seem to be in one of these downturns, meaning away from rationalism.
