Got some dry weather so spent Sat & today out at the CS camp I'm excavating. I thought y'all might like to see how to find a Confederate hut site. The farmer is getting ready to plow to plant his cotton for this year so I always try and get the relics from the surface and below before he plows. While hunting on Sat I came across the tell tell signs of a hut site. When you find the brick, glass and start digging square nails you are on one. On Sat I found this area that included those as well as a few nice CS I buttons. Today I went back with the long shovel and dug the site Below are the finds including 4 12th Ga buttons.
