Officials hope to shed light on cave riddle
By Charlie Russo, Globe Correspondent  |  January 21, 2007

For decades, the identities of the people who built a manmade cave in Upton have been a mystery -- and a cause for debate. But with the town's recent purchase of the so-called "Upton Chamber" and its surrounding property, officials hope to put the mystery to rest.

They hope that a study of the site will settle the long-running argument between those who believe the landmark is simply a place that Colonial settlers built to store their vegetables, and others who believe its existence proves that Europeans crossed the Atlantic Ocean thousands of years before Columbus. . . . .

The chamber sits underneath a hill. A 14-foot-long tunnel at the hill's base leads to a beehive-shaped chamber roughly 12 feet across and 11 feet tall. Flat stones overlap each other to form the walls and ceiling, in a corbelled formation that resembles an upside-down set of stairs. . . . . . .
