Nine Men's Misery is a historic site in Cumberland, Rhode Island, and is considered to be the oldest veterans' memorial in the United States. The event in question occurred during King Philip's War on March 26, 1676, when nine colonial militiamen were captured, tortured, and killed by Narragansett warriors after a battle. A stone cairn was erected by locals to mark the location where the men were buried. The monument, which has been maintained and rebuilt over the centuries, is a reminder of the conflict and its impact on early American history.
