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.
Nice catch Tim. I wonder if the author has searched online for his topic?
ReplyDeleteFunny, I've climbed Katahdin twice (at one time circumnavigating the entire mountain), but I don't recall the tall cairn on the summit. Either I wasn't impressed with its height, or else I'm getting too forgetful.
ReplyDeleteThanks kindly for posting this link to my blog about cairns. And, yes, I did do quite a bit of searching on my topic, including Rock Piles, which I have been reading and enjoying. Cairns and rock piles are an endlessly fascinating subject.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
