I did find a lot of bottles most of them daiting in the late 18- early 1900 canning liquir ect. cider or milk. this is the only clay jug intact I can't seem to find it on line. it looks as if it is some ones personal liquir jog you would string a rope through the handle and hang it around your neck. that's my guess can't find it on line though so I don't know not much of a colecter
