Puzzling rocks trump quarry

By Alex, DeMarban
(The Artice Sounder)

A Northwest Alaska village with a rich archaeological history stopped a quarry project that would have brought much-needed jobs and money.

The reason? Mysterious rock arrangements some call the remains of an ancient culture.

NANA, a Native regional corporation, wanted to create the quarry on a hillside near Deering. The corporation owns the subsurface rights and wanted the rock partly for seawall projects around that village and Kivalina, said Abraham Snyder, director of lands.
