Lost colonial settlements- SE VA

Wanted to share a couple of the more scenic properties I detect. Even the days I don't find much are enjoyable.. You'll see why

right out in front of my detector about 40 yards was an early homesite.. by my estimates, occupied 1750-1880​

I agree with posting more site pics as they put a post into perspective. I like to see the tangled jungles and/or smooth swingin' easy diggin' spots that all of us hunt.

Great pics ! VPR

Yes, the only thing is a lot of folks are leery to show or tell anything.. Me, I don't care, as long as someone who tries to site-jump doesn't mind a shovel upside their head if I show up that day.
