> Below is Bill Lindsey's write-up on a new report we have just completed.
>  Last summer, Bottle Research Group members examined the collection of
> bottles from a Fort Riley, Kansas, privy.  Based on our analysis, we were
> able to design and test a few new hypotheses that led to new insights.  As
> noted below, the report is free online of available for $15 plus shipping
> from Lulu.com.

> This is NOT part of the Encyclopedia.  We have about 30 other irons in the
> fire at the same time.

> Insights from the Bottles Excavated at the Fort Riley Hospital Privy.
> Privately published by Bill Lockhart & the Bottle Research Group.  This
> well illustrated work highlights the reanalysis of hundreds of bottles and
> bottle fragments systematically excavated in 1984 from a large privy at
> Fort Riley, KS.  used from the late 1850s into the 1890s.  The reanalysis
> resulted in the identification of several previously unattributed makers
> markings as well as provided a significant amount of information to affirm
> and refine many of the concepts and dating guidelines found on this site.
