Waves rolling in over stony landscaped beach

Waves advance towards the shore, a stiff wind driving them. They are sharp-edged like Rocky Mountain ridges. As they arrive on the stony beach, unnaturally landscaped into existence on the edge of an ancient lake, they slowly rearrange it. I wonder where the stones were brought from, what homeland they might remember. Lisa C. Ravensbergen called them 'Grandfather Stones' in her performance work near here and gathered them with ceremony, making sure to return them to their new beach home afterward, with ceremony. Along this waterfront lived the Mississauga nation, before this land became the shared home of the Anishenaabe and the Mohawks, and the French and English descended upon them. I'm trying to imagine them here. Around the bend from this place there was once a village, and Mississauga graves were found there by the settlers. In 1816 it was mentioned in the local newspaper that the remains of "15 to 20 Indians, with beads, knives, etc. have been found ... The bodies appear to have been severally wrapt in bark, the remains of which were found in close proximity to the undecayed portions of each skeleton". I suppose the remains were relocated? Maybe more are still buried along there, under the ugly shoreline apartment buildings. While recording this I'm listening to two distinct layers of sound, the above-water continuous crashing of waves driven by the wind, and also a deeper rumble of stones being shifted around with the arrival of the larger waves that reach up the beach towards two geophones nestled under a few larger stones. They pick up the bubbling, rising sounds of the rocks being tumbled in each wave. It's a grey, very windy day, a wonderful break in the humid, hot summer weather.
