American?
Our story of great civilizations and stonework fizzles when we turn to the United States.
There have been a few stone projects, including the
Vietnam Memorial and
Georgia Guidestones,
but nothing close to the scale close to prior great civilizations.
Today, mostly unmarked stone is used in building construction and
marked stone is used in small sizes for individuals (tombstones).
What great stone works do we leave for the future to connect to us?
Without such great stone works, is the United States disqualified from the list
of great civilizations?
How much of today's story will be readable in 2,000 years?
