The Pawcatuck River and its numerous tributaries, including the Wood River, define the landscape of south-central Rhode Island in this contemporary topographic study. The area is marked by a deep layering of indigenous history and early European settlement, particularly evident near the southern coast where Fort Ninigret and the Royal Indian Burial Ground are situated. These sites, along with Indian Burying Hill, point to the long-standing significance of the terrain near Watchaug Pond and the coastal inlets.
