"For more than three centuries, the mysterious carvings on a stone in a Massachusetts river have had something to tell us. Will we ever get the message?
"Here's what we know for certain: Sometime before 1680, someone left a
40-ton note in what is now Berkley, Massachusetts. Who it was remains a
mystery, as does whatever message he or she wanted to convey - and
pretty much everything else about the enigmatic Dighton Rock."
A recently updated Yankee Magazine essay reflected on the origin and meaning of Dighton Rock.
