Subject: New Addition to the Diagnostic Artifacts in Maryland Website
This spring saw an important new addition to JPPM's Diagnostic Artifacts in
Maryland website - Projectile Points (
<http://www.jefpat.org/diagnostic/Maryland_Projectile_Points/index-projectil
epoints.html>
http://www.jefpat.org/diagnostic/Maryland_Projectile_Points/index-projectile
points.html). The website allows you to search for a particular point by
its shape or time period, provides detailed information about the age,
shape, and distribution of each point type, and includes lots of photos of
points from our collections. So far the feedback from the archaeological
community has been positive, and the website served as the focus of this
year's Maryland Archeology Month.
While the Projectile Point page is a huge addition to the website, we are
also pleased to report several other new sections to Diagnostic Artifacts of
Maryland ( <http://www.jefpat.org/diagnostic/index.htm>
http://www.jefpat.org/diagnostic/index.htm). Canton Porcelain and Victorian
Majolica have been added to the Less Commonly Found Wares section of
Post-Colonial Ceramics and Marbles have been added to the Small Finds
section. As always, work continues at the lab to create new categories and
update previously posted ones. Stay tuned for a new Small Finds
category-Bone Handled Toothbrushes-and for revisions and new photos in the
Colonial Ceramics section on Tin-Glazed Earthenware.
