History of the Pilgrims and Puritans, their ancestry and descendants; basis of Americanization . DIGHTON ROCK, A STUDY FOR THE ANTHROPOLOGIST. as a Norse ruin. The architectural details of Newportsstone tower, however, seem to prove that the building existedprior to the twelfth century, even though Governor Arnolddid thriftily utilize the efiforts of these ancients as a wind-mill. About 1836 an armor-encased skeleton was disinterredat Fall River; exposed after a shower that washed away anembankment. Unfortunately this relic was later destroyedby fire. In spite of Longfellows poetic interpretation,The Skeleton in Armor, when judged by the metal andits treatment through forge, anvil and sledge, proved notto be a Norsemans skeleton. Dighton Rock, of allegedNorse fame, on the Taunton River, tide awash, and the rockat Steubenville, Ohio, are to the majority simply crudeexamples of Indian pictorial art. Setting aside these facts,the doings of Leif Erikson and his Norse kinsmen in Vine-land, stand in the minds of many on firmer foundations. Onthe banks of the Charles River (Quinchequin)
