I'll be spending most of the summer as a ranger at Petersburg National Battlefield in Virginia. This blog is to be a record of my day to day experiences as I attempt to keep up with school groups, internship requirements, tourists, and 100+ degree temperatures.

Flotsam
Last week I founds this piece of ceramic on the bottom of a shallow portion of Poor Creek, which runs through the battlefield. I took it to the park archaeologist and she told me that the edge design could be from a kind of ceramic commonly made in the 1700's. Unfortunately without more of the piece there is no real way to date it.
