Many of us learned about Plymouth Rock as school children, and most likely have even visited the monument that surrounds this symbol of American history.
Did you know there is another historic rock in Plymouth Massachusetts? It's called Sacrifice Rock and it is located on Old Sandwich Road in The Pinehills.
Native Americans would place branches, stones, or other items on or around the rock as a spiritual gesture in hopes of receiving blessings for safe travels.
Even today, you can still find "offerings" that people have placed on or around this special rock. When I visited recently to take this photograph, I noticed beads, coins, rocks, pinecones, part of a shell, feathers, and a little red pouch. Who knows what I will find next time.
