Hey /x/, I was wondering if any of you know anything about indian burial grounds. My late grandmother owned a fairly large property in west virginia which was passed on to my father and his brother upon her death. My grandmother was a very superstitious women and was always insistent about her grandchildren never wondering too far from the house into the heavily wooded surrounding property. I always had assumed she was simply worried about us getting lost in the woods as the surrounding area was quite large and full of dense forrest that was difficult to navigate, but its possible her fears stemmed from something darker. A year or so ago I was wandering around the property when i stumbled upon an odd formation of rocks that was around 8 feet at its widest. Grass and other plant life had sprouted up between the rocks and it was clear that stones had been in there current position for some time. Intrigued I immediately headed back to find my father and ask him about what I had found. Surprisingly, he responded to my inquires in a very matter of fact manor and said I had stumbled upon one of the properties burial mounds. He insisted that he had told me about the mounds several times before and had even taken me to see them. Yet I had no recollection of this.
Apparently when the property was purchased the former owner informed my grandmother that there were several indian burial mounds scattered across the estate, but he had never contacted any archaeological associations because he worried someone would come and dig them up.
From my knowledge there are two of these mounds across the property that i have personally discovered, yet my uncle claims there is a third that he found one night yet for the life of him cannot find the location again.
My question for /x/ is how would i go about confirming if these are indeed burial mounds or not?
unfortunately i do not have any pictures of it at the moment, as all of them were on my old phone which was stolen a few months ago. however Im fairly certain either my brother or father does and I will try contacting them and requesting them

by obviously disturbing them with a gardening shovel.
just remember, would you like some punk kid digging you up in 100 years?
>>17906793
the whole point is I want to either confirm or deny their purpose without excavating

oh, of course, just channel your Tulpa Succubi in a summoning circle using some "grimoires" and runes, is that the answer you were looking for?
Ground penetrating radar would be your best bet.
Failing that, there should be other artifacts to be found that aren't burial artifacts.

now your just being a faggot. I wanted to know if there is anyway to distinguish a burial mound from say a cairn. Im not having much luck online

Your whole country is an Indian burial ground.

That's way spookier than the skeleton inside of me.

cairns are on hilltops or other elevated places.

Its where tulpa, occults, skinwalkers, goatmen, and divination come from. Dig it up for a long life of good luck

Check the town hall records, if that effort should fail, then check the county or state records.
If all else fails, you can make an inquiry at the Bureau of Indian Affairs regarding the native tribes who previously lived on your land and the burial traditions they practiced.
