Not too familar of the RI area but lots in my town and Middleboro. Assawopsett was the place where King Phillips war started pretty much. Middleboro used to have a great museum of Indian artifacts from the Pond area. Not sure where that is housed anymore. A couple Wompanoag burial grounds too in my area. Pretty much kind of the middle of the trek from Plymouth to Mt. Hope. Plymouth is worth a father son trip too. Probably soon we will have an Indian casino too.

Nebe,

I'm a Cherokee (yes really). You could tell him that you're going to visit a real Indian house, head up to Tiverton, and in the process give me back all the plugs of mine you've ho'ed

There's a certian very old white BM darter that you had better still have.

I'll second this book "King Phillips War" and add Indian New England Before the Mayflower. A lot of good info.
