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.
Many of the video clips -- or portions of them -- on "Hidden Vermont" are very compelling, as they remind me of similar features I have seen on my trips throughout New England and the Northeast. While I remain convinced that there are probably a thousand or more miles of Indian walls throughout the Northeast, how do we convey this knowledge we have acquired to the archaeologists who remain unconvinced that what we believe is Native American is nothing but the work of colonial settlers?
