You certainly had the privilege of hitting some good ole sites back in the day. Glad you didn't just bag the shards. Great tenacity!

Very nice, good job piecing it back together as well. Interesting motifs on it & one wonders their significance? Do you think it was made on Cedar Key or imported?

All the Weeden Island stuff seems very delicate with thin walls. That is hard to do without a wheel. Most of the pottery over here along the St. John's is thicker and very little incised. I have some that has a pattern but it looks like it was rolled on a mat and then fired.

....I’m not keeping up too good. Do you have a shard collection also? Parts and pieces that don’t fit together?
