Hi,
Here is an item I found recently while digging for old bottles. I was probing in the woods and heard a crunching noise, so I started digging through the roots.
I was finding a lot of broken clay pieces. Some were free formed by hand, some looked like broken handles and others were large flat pieces. I will include some pics of the clay pcs.
I noticed something white pop out from the dirt being pulled from the hole. It was the white swirls stuck in a block of clay and outlined. Note the brown
earthy colored edges of the white porcelain type material. Interesting. At first, I thought, Indian contact period, or maybe from an old pottery factory.
What do you think it could be?
One thing I know for sure is that those roots were poison ivy. I forgot what that felt like.
Thanks, RJ .
