Archaeology Notes

NJ90NW 1544 c. 943 062

NJ 943 062 Excavation of a small undisturbed area in Shiprow revealed a 12th-century oven or kiln and rubbish pits. The oven was set in a large pit and was clay-lined. Many repairs had taken place and the complete structure replaced at least four times. Charcoal samples from a shallow cut feature have been dated to the 1st century AD.
