stone marker
Carved boundary indicator
A stone marker is a piece of stone placed to indicate something—a boundary, a grave, a historic site, or a point along a trail.
The term emphasizes the material and function: Old stone markers lined the property's edge.
Unlike monuments, stone markers tend to be simple and utilitarian rather than decorative.
