DESCRIPTION:This is the snow date.  Registration will be available if pro
 gram has to be postponed from original date.\r\nOriginal Date is available
  here.\r\nA hike in the woods often reveals a variety of built stone cultu
 ral features. Many of these are the remains of abandoned farmsteads and in
 dustrial mill sites. Others, however, represent Native American ceremonial
  sites. \r\nJoin us as we explore the history of Southern New England’
 s Indigenous Ceremonial Stone Landscapes (CSLs). They are often unrecogni
 zed as the significant cultural landscapes they are, in dire need of prote
 ction and preservation.\r\nThis PowerPoint presentation (and the recently 
 published book on which it is based) introduces people to Southern New Eng
 land’s Indigenous Ceremonial Stone Landscapes (CSLs) – sacred spaces w
 hose principal identifying characteristics are stacked stone structures th
 at cluster within specific physical landscapes. They are often unrecognize
 d as the significant cultural landscapes they are, in dire need of protect
 ion and preservation.\r\nLucianne Lavin is Director Emerita of Research
