| A whole ceramic bottle with cork pushed inside was found loose with very little growth in a scoured area on the west side of the exposed mound near cannon C4. It is a salt-glazed, wheel thrown vessel with poorly defined shoulders and flat bottom similar to the Bertrand Bottle Class 1 Type 1 (Switzer 1974: 9). It has a rounded lip finish with a single applied coil collar just below lip. The lower body is white while the shoulder and neck are a pale yellow ochre color. The bottle is stamped in the body near the base with "Price/Bristol" mark that angle slightly downward. The original contents was more than likely ale (Switzer 1974: 9- 14). Bottles of this general type were manufactured beginning 1820 and lasted into the 20th century with a median date of 1860. |
