Historic land update

I've been so busy, sorry about not getting more pics up sooner. Here is an assortment of glass and pottery shards, some are quite colorful. This gives me a new appreciation for the work done by museums, archaeologists. and historians.

Neat

Could the concrete with the spikes be some sort of anchor or foundation to an old building or some other structure? Maybe posts or something were pounded onto the spikes? Have they determined the size and depth?

From the email I thought this was carved stone, maybe will have to take another look or missed it when reading the info.

I don't know, but I'd found a German helmet photo that had a top part which looked just like the spikes with raised up area on the stone slab. It was a marshy type soil where the slab is located between 2 out of place cypress trees. We didn't really figure out for sure what it could have been used for, only our speculation about it.

Here is a quote, it does say stone...

"And, something I cannot even begin to describe. Its still in the ground but looks like a
stone slab with what can only be described as (for lack of a better way to describe it)
the points of 2 german helmets at each end that rise up about 6 inches from the slab.
thought i had the picture saved on my computer, but cannot find it now."

I haven't heard from the museum board lately, but the "arkie" on the board quietly registered here on T-Net without making a single post.......wouldn't expect them to leave any feedback on a treasure hunting site.
