There were some others that were broken mixed with the broken beer bottles. I was hoping someone could Id the bottle from the unique markings. Thanks mike A09B48EF-95DE-4353-A350-8AFAF4F5C501.jpeg 4789D519-FD7A-44B4-AE1F-0DE9623A523A.jpeg F7C2562F-CD66-45D4-9948-4653E00947E3.jpeg 94BC52CC-EA90-45A1-8A61-185205F67220.jpeg

Looks like a ketchup or some kind of food/sauce bottle.

I Agree that’s what it looks like. But the area I found them in looked like some people drinking in the woods. Beer bottles scattered on top and at least 5 more of these bottles broke on top the ground with a few other types of broken bottles. My gut tells me some type of alcohol or maybe soda.

Given the area, I see no reason for ketchup bottles being there.

I see no reason for the other bottles to be there except us stupid littering humans.

100 years ago this was probably the site someone or a small town dumped such things, it was extremely common...

Years ago, we were digging an old city dump in Albany Georgia and these type ketchup bottles showed up regularly and we tossed them to the side. We were after the straight sided sodas and Hutchinsons.
