    While metal detecting in a union encampment, a deep signal that turned out to be a soldier's ration can put me in a hut from which I was able to make this food jar recovery.

      This is an awesome find, I have always loved the Stone jars. Looks like it cleaned up well, is there a chip on the lip? Congrats, your hard work paid off big time!
