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.

Retired URI professor charged with faking degree
This is too bad for all involved. It completely muddies the waters of the North Smithfield - Nipsachuk story.
I wonder who accused Meli and why? We went over this several years ago after his somewhat unbelievable Nipsachuk report. But it stayed "in the family" and no one ever considered making formal accusations.
I got word of this yesterday from someone whose e-mail address is doug349@aol.com. I checked with Tim Fohl and this is definitely not Doug Harris - does anyone recognize the address?
A lawyer who represented the landowner of the cairn field in N. Smithfield contacted me years ago about Meli. He was going to prosecute Meli, but I never found out what became of this, until perhaps now. The gears of justice are often slow moving.
