I've spent the last couple of weeks getting ready for the move (Louisville to Ft. Lauderdale), and today was the day the movers came and packed the furniture and boxes into the container. It's a pain, but the upside is that I've had a chance to move some artifacts around and organize some pictures.
Here is a little cache I dug a while back. There is a poor village on this site, and as I was driving through I could see the cross section of a couple of large funerary urns from the car. A quick discussion with the owner, and I was allowed to go investigate. He had come across several while he was leveling his lot; he dumped the throw dirt, pottery and bones into the river.
I didn't have to pay him, his only request was that we clean up the mess and level off the back wall.
The first picture is one of the urns in cross section. The second picture is one of my local helpers, notice the rooster on a rope... The rest of the pictures the stuff found in that urn. The last picture is a different pottery cache a couple of feet away (there are three pieces of pottery there.)
