So far the suggestions I have received on the glass vessels visible
on New South's website (http://www.newsouthassoc.com) are: glue
bottles, boot black bottles, and some sort of medicine jar. I have
gotten some good suggestions for references, but would still
appreciate more.
Several people have asked for context. The context of the vessels
is a ca. 1750-1760 privy in downtown Charleston, SC. There was
some 19th Century overburden that was removed with a backhoe,
although some 19th Century material did end up in the upper level
of the privy.
