Got out to dig sunday and decided to dig the same gnoll that the big oak is on. Started shaving couple inches off the top at a time with shovel and started sifting. Started hitting a bunch of pink fire stones so i decided to start scraping once i got down to the next layer. Was pretty shocked at what was down there. This is everything that came out of about a 3'×4' area and about 14inches down. Im guessing this is some kind of midden or scrap spot, though i didnt find any shells or anything and only a little bit of flint.
Lots of pieces, though some look to be same piece there is a big variety here. Ranging in thickness from 5mm-15mm
Piece of rim with design on top and sides




Thought this was clay, but not entirely sure,could be just a stone.

Piece of clay pipe?



Some charred wood, got a pic of charred wood right on top of a fire stone though the light angle doesnt show color too well, the piece of char is about 11oclock.


There were a lot of flakes down there, but this was all there really was for flint.

Great time yesterday and couldnt be happier finding my first pottery pieces.
