  • Web Link Megaliths, caves and other interesting stuff!

    This web site contains information and various photos and illustrations from the Tristate area of Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York. In future additions to this site, I will include archaeological, geological and historic sites, and anything else that has caught my interest. I am particularly interested in finding sites that are "lost", ones that you read about in books, and no one knows anything about.

  • Web Link Field Journal

    Massachusetts has a wealth of unusual and enigmatic stone structures of uncertain antiquity and unknown origin.  These have been conjectured to be constructed by ancient Celts, Native Americans, Colonial farmers, and neo-pagans.

  • Web Link Waking Up on Turtle Island

    Some thoughts about some stones of all sorts, a vision of an Ancient Native American Sacred Cultural Landscape, photos of it's remnants, links, drawings, a call for its preservation and more by Tim MacSweeney

  • Web Link Stone Sites

    Off the beaten trails and away from the old dirt roads, those that have "bush-whacked" their way across the terrain of the Foxboro State Forest have discovered many unique man-made stone structures that clearly give evidence of cultures from another time period.

  • Web Link Megalithic Sites

    A megalithic monument, in archaeology, is a construction involving one or several roughly hewn stone slabs of great size; it is usually of prehistoric antiquity. These monuments are found in various parts of the world, but the best known and most numerous are concentrated in Western Europe, including Brittany, the British Isles, Iberia, S France, S Scandinavia, and N Germany.

  • Web Link Solstice Rock

    "Solstice Rock" is an unusual stone formation in Boxborough, Massachusetts. About 100 yards from this formation, is an old, human-made, stone viewing platform. Standing on the platform during the Winter Solstice sunrise, the sun rises clearly through a notch at the top of Solstice Rock.

  • Web Link the Hopewell Mounds

    Although the Hopewell mounds and earthworks of Ross County, Ohio have been well known to the scientific community for more than 150 years, many basic questions have yet to be answered about the sites, and about the people and culture who built them.

  • Web Link Cahokia Mounds
    The remains of the most sophisticated prehistoric native civilization north of Mexico are preserved at Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site. Within the 2,200-acre tract, located a few miles west of Collinsville, Illinois, lie the archaeological remnants of the central section of the ancient settlement that is today known as Cahokia.
  • Web Link Meadowcroft Rockshelter

    If not for the curiosity of a Washington County, Pa., farmer six decades ago, Meadowcroft Rockshelter – the oldest site of human habitation in North America – might have never been discovered. In 1955, Albert Miller stumbled upon a groundhog hole on his family’s farm in Avella and uncovered what looked to be a prehistoric tool.

    Meadowcroft Rockshelter is part of the Senator John Heinz History Center which is an educational institution that engages and inspires a large and diverse audience with links to the past, understanding in the present, and guidance for the future by preserving regional history and presenting the American experience with a Western Pennsylvania connection.
