The image shows the Newport Tower, also known as the Old Stone Mill, located in Touro Park in Newport, Rhode Island.
It is a circular stone structure that is considered one of the oldest existing structures in Newport.
The tower is generally considered to be the remains of a windmill built in the mid-17th century.
Carbon dating of the mortar from the stones has placed its construction in the 1600s.
The tower has been the subject of speculation and theories regarding its origins for centuries, with some suggesting pre-Columbian or Viking construction.
