Mysterious Stone Sites in the Hudson Valley 

Remember George Carlin saying such in his act

Where I live there seems to be a greater incidence of cancer around them. Something about the runoff.

I agree Golf Courses are a mindless, environmentally unfriendly butt ugly blight, Besides the poison used for all the non indigenous often exotic plants, the tonnage of nitrates used for fast green growth and acre feet of water wasted used to keep the grass and petunias green of coarse seeps down deep polluting the aquafirs, Especially out west places like Palm Springs, Coachella valley , Las Vegas Valley, Phoenix Valley & so many other Desert & Mountain resorts, which used to be seasonal, but now year round resorts, where for months keeping the grass green during 110++ degree days requires alot of water and fertilizer to jeep the money green, It is far more than a mental drought & compulsive obsession. I think Palm Springs has close to 100 golf courses now, I remember years ago there were 7 courses in Palm Springs. Of coarse back then In Vegas ha 1 or 2 golf Coarses & you could see the open desert from each end of the Strip looking north or south from either end town, there was an end to it... Of coarse gas was 19 cents a gallon, breakfast was 39 cents, , steak & eggs 69 cents, and there was still table service, no "all you can eat buffets", & no fat golfers either.. And people were not in such a hurry. I was a Chef in many resorts, the waste produced for an exclusive few recreators and clubbers is completely mind numbing. Instant gratification and fingertip living. I was totally abused as a child forced to be a golf caddy on weekends during my formative years for daddy dearest, and the boys from work that was pure torture. Later in life the few resorts i worked at that had a golf courses made me think,, the smell of heavy nitrates layiing low while evaporating in the sprinklers mist, permeating the hot desert air at night.

Parkinson’s is also tied to all the pesticide use.

would definitely like to learn more about this if possible and if you can send the link to the archives article.

its amazing they really are everywhere… amazing most of the stone walls are still standing after all these years

It’s driving me crazy. What I see and yet no history…. Or what history is told…..it rubs me wrong

As a kid driving around with my grandfather from Yonkers told us they were Indian walls. Heard my mom tell my son the same. Here in PA

it is more likely these stone construction were built by possibly the Irish or Vikings as natives were and are not known to build with stone in any significant way. this is all pre Columbus discovery

Thumbygreen You do realize native Americans built stone structures right? There’s pyramids in Mexico, machu pichu etc. Basically anyone here before Columbus is a Native American I assume. The trouble is if you’re a welsh red headed Native American tribe academia doesn’t want that to be known. The pauites Native American tribe In Nevada tell how they killed a red headed tribe. Then ya got Easter island with statues with beards even though today’s Native Americans can’t grow beards. My point is clearly there were groups in the America before Columbus and probably way before the Vikings etc. Maybe the Vikings made Easter island or visited there for the locals to then make bearded statues, but there’s probably been global trade and travel even back in Roman times and older.

This area has no original indigenous natives. Entire tribes were wiped out and any that survived were absorbed into other tribes in other parts of the country. We have some stories and some words that have remained but no way to verify because they are all gone. 😢 But one story that I've heard myself being 6th generation Hudson Valley is as per the stone chambers they weren't made by local natives. But they were here before their ancestors arrived

No WAY natives built anyone of these structures

Please, has a native American mentioned the tribes of Isreal? Because I believe that.
