I recently acquired a historic home with an old frontier fort inside of it. It has been heavily detected the past couple of years, but I opened my first pit, and the finds have been pouring out.

BTW, I've been posting progress on my FB page: https://www.facebook.com/Scavengeology/

I'm gonna need help with ID of some of the stuff I've pulled out, but I have so many pics, I'll have to make several uploads. I've never pulled out so many patterns of ceramics. I just don't see how the hell they went through so many plates. Or even owned so many patterns at one location. Not pictured, are some dandy buttons that were found here by metal detector prior to the pit being opened up, and a few other cool things.

When you get the time, post those arrowheads from the garden, in the North America Indian Artifact forum......

These are the only ones I've seen. The farm's prior caretaker has them.

Now that is relic hunting...dig everything! :occasion14:
 

Those NA artifacts look mostly Archaic......4,000-6,000 years old. Should be more of those to be found also. That Fort location has been popular......for quite a while. Thanks for the pic of the artifacts.
