A Little Info On Site's

Had a friend call me about a site and thought I would take a look. This is a pit that is in between to mounds on a plaza. They found sign of people being there has deep has 14 ft, there main diet was frog, snake , fish , turtle and bird's. They found some real neat stuff, but I can't post it right now. The state put up 1/4 of the funds for this 3 week dig and they took their own money for the rest and to me that shows dedication and guys this was dug by women. So don't ever think you have found all the artifacts on a site.

I wonder how they killed or caught the birds

Are they going to do any carbon dating? Do they have an idea (based on the artifacts) what time frame?

I would think 14 ft deep would have to be real old. Here and of course it depends on the weather and trees but for the most part 1 inch of top soil equals 100 years.
