Remains of a barrel

The Artifacts field is used to record stations where artifacts are found. Examples of artifacts might include: tobacco tins, glass jars, flash bulbs (broken or not), batteries, etc. They could also include very historic artifacts such as the remains of a sandal, pot shards or reed torch fragments.

Here is a list of a few of the things that I have actually recorded in this field to give you some idea of what should be recorded here.

  • empty tobacco tin (1930s)
  • pipe cleaning tool
  • batteries (D-cell, 1950s)
  • hair ribbon
  • part of the sole of a boot
  • rat trap (modern)
  • flash bulb fragments
  • burned paper chit
  • electrical wiring
  • remains of a boxed chicken dinner (see also bones)

The recorder is asked to include the approximate age of any artifacts found. This information should be included next to the station.

Example

Artifacts: G37 (kerosene lamp mantel, ~70 years)
