Description
Many
fragments
from a
large
,
thick
grit-tempered
ceramic
vessel
have been
glued
together
. The
intact
pot
was an
undecorated
egg-shaped
vessel
with a
flat
rim
.
It
is
an
artifact
from the
Adena
Culture
(800
BCE-100
CE)
.
Most
of its
base
is
missing
, and
it
has been
restored
with
foam
material
. Its
two
lug
handles
are
broken
.
It
is
dark
reddish
gray
and
dark
gray
in
color
. The
vessel
was
found
at the
former
Dominion
Land
Company
site
in what
today
is
the
Clintonville
neighborhood
of
Columbus
,
Ohio
(Franklin
County)
. Also
known
as the
Overbrook
Ravine
Earthwork
, the
site
consisted
of
two
conical
mounds
surrounded
by a
circular
earthwork
.
During
the
early
1950s
the
Dominion
Land
Company
purchased
the
earthwork
with the
intent
of
making
it
the
site
of a
housing
subdivision
,
despite
an
effort
by the
City
of
Columbus
to
preserve
it
.
During
four
months
in
1953
a
team
of
Ohio
Historical
Society
archaeologists
and
Ohio
State
students
partially
excavated
the
two
mounds
before
the
site
was
leveled
. This
vessel
is
one
of the
artifacts
recovered
during
their
excavation
.
