I was not aware of the Narragansett reputation for stone work.
But the stone work through out the Southeast and Ohio River Valley suggest they either traveled very far and wide and long as hired craftsmen, or they learned the skill for local use from a culture that was wide spread and pre-dated them.

The whites of the 1600's could only write about what they saw and were told.
As time went on they learned to take what they were told with a grain of salt.
(Just how long is as "many moons?")
