Why is it that wherever you go in the world, if are out in a remote area, with a great expansive view, people will create rock piles of various shapes and sizes? It’s an interesting phenomena. I’ve seen them in South America, Africa, and, most recently, Europe. I captured one of the rock piles I found in Iceland in today’s photo.
Good one….
Thanks Snow!
In Canada aboriginal rock piles in the North, Inukshuks, mean “We were here”. Perhaps a universal thought?
Maybe. I think when I was down in Bolivia someone said they were offerings for safe passage. It made sense as they tended to be concentrated at the beginnings of roads.
