That's a cairn. The term originates from a Gaelic word meaning "heap of stones." Humans have used cairns for millennia to guide travelers on their way. My first practical experience with cairns was in my 20s while backcountry backpacking in Utah and Arizona – I still love to backpack.
My three sons grew up making cairns at "pebble beach" in Hyde Park, a neighborhood on Chicago's southside where you can find the University of Chicago, its Booth School of Business, and me.
In the summer of 2023 I plucked four stones off pebble beach to make the cairn above. I hope it can guide you on your journey.
