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.

The comments with that article are interesting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for pointing them out. Since I don't want to register there to make a comment, I will comment here instead:
ReplyDeleteRene Thom's study of stone circles in England found dimensions that always represented multiples of what he called "the megalithic yard". You would not detect the presence of a standard unit of measure unless you looked at lots of data points - and you certainly would not get it from looking at colored lines overlayed on a photograph.
The people who comment that the article is nonsense and wishful thinking are not in a position to evaluate the science, and might not understand it anyway. The people who worked on Peublo Bonita are probably better judges. However it is impossible to tell from the article itself, whether the data was "cherry picked".
