Peter Robins said:are you talking about piles of stones at the side of the roads or piles of stones at the side of the fields? In stony terrain, farmers pick up stones in the fields and move them to the edge of the fields (a Sisyphean task, as there'll be a new crop next year). Not every pile of stones is a milladoiro!
