These artifacts were recovered from AH7 topsoil levels. AH7 is our newest unit in the middle of the back yard. In it, we are finding a fascinating mix of periods and objects (clockwise form upper left): a Fiestaware cup, likely late 1930s-mid 1940s; two burned fragments of Rhenish (German) blue and gray stoneware beer mugs, probably made before the Revolutionary War; a fragment of a writing slate, dating from the 18th or 19th century; and fragments of a clay smoking pipe marked "[BAN]NERMAN/GLA[SGOW]" with a "TD" cartouche, made during the mid or late 19th century.
