2 unusual spills

Been too busy to post for a good while now. Still keep up with everybody else's though. It's dry out there since all the moisture got concentrated in Appalachia. Nature can be cruel and has no prejudice. Its going to be a tough recovery. Here's the filthy pile. Found 2 spills of the unusual variety. I dug a target and noticed several ornate shell buttons in the hole and hanging out of the side. started digging around and it turned out to be a 1 foot diameter spill of shell and bone buttons. A few glass ones too. At the very back of the property I hit an area of high tones that ended up being a dump of, what seems to be, early 20th or late 19th century printer's blocks. Maybe 25 or so came out of that area. Probably a narrow 5' strip. Lots of fun digging that stuff. Notice that everything is the same color in that pile. I'll clean it up and post the colorful version later.
