On June 9, our crews finished several test units and began new ones.

The concentration of artifacts that seems to relate to the mid-1800s is located near the modern fenceline. New excavation areas opened today continue to produce large quantities of artifacts that suggest we are in the "midst" of a domestic residential area.


Amongst the items recovered are many fragments of stoneware "crocks"...


And, medicine bottles and "jews harps"


We have some promising indications of fencelines and buildings from today's work -- Thursday will tell whether our increasing excitement about the potential for today's finds prove fruitful!
