Yesterday, on my walking in the hills, we came upon medieval burial mounds, they looked so dramatic i had to take a picture, anyone else found anything like this?

WOW! That is unbelievable. We do not have any medieval burial grounds, but we do have a lot of old sacred indian burial grounds. I worked in the woods as a Forester for many years and I would come up on all kinds of exciting things like this. Some of the areas were well defined, but others were harder to tell what they were. I walked upon a very old cemetary in the middle of the woods once, the tombstones that you could read were from the 1800's.

I am from Italy. I love archeological stones and monuments. Here sometime they are a problem... you cannot move a stone that you find something... it is good but difficult if you have to build something new :-)
