This mysterious Dighton Rock is covered in strange engravings of unknown origin.
Dighton Rock State Park is a public recreation area and historic preserve located on the eastern shore of the Taunton River in the town of Berkley, Massachusetts. The 98-acre (40 ha) state park is the site of a small museum that houses the Dighton Rock, an 11-foot-high (3.4 m) glacial erratic, covered with petroglyphs, that once sat on the banks of the river. It is managed by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation.

Featuring over 1200 acres of thickly wooded forests, many visitors arrive here to view the autumnal fireworks. The rich colors of evergreen pines and backdrop of vivid red cranberry bogs provide an uncommon contrast to the annual changing of the leaves. The primary activities here are hiking, mountain biking, and camping. Many other amenities abound; however, such as: canoeing, fishing, restricted hunting, picnicking, swimming, and cross-country skiing.
This 10-acre park is open during the warmer months and is great for families. It offers a playground, picnic facility, small freshwater beach, bathrooms, and a wide range of seasonal recreational activities.
