Hello again,
Was out metal detecting with my two kids and we stumbled across a few things we can't ID and we would also like to date them if possible. We found the wood items laying on the ground in a small valley. We then picked up the metal clasps and hooks about a foot away. The metal items where buried from one inch to 10 inches down, we also found an old bottle in the hole with the metal objects. These items were found in the Mojave Desert close to the Calico Mountain. Our best guess is that the metal items were part of a backpack that the fabric or canvas had rotted away.
We greatly appreciate any and all help.
Thanks
Chris
