Stones as witnesses

Stones as “witnesses” occur throughout תנ”ך.

Just a few examples (here without sources):

Jacob’s stone at Beth-El
The stones taken from from the crossing of the Jordan
The altar/monument on הר גריזים
The altar that the 2½ tribes build (Josh. 22:34)
The stone that Joshua takes in 24:27
