Raritan Landing What's New

What's New?
	Spring 2001:
	Teawares from the Bodine/French meadow property. On the left are two painted Chinese export porcelain teacups. On the right are an English tin glazed saucer and teacup painted with Chinese-style motifs.
	Iron forks with decorated bone handles and a pewter spoon from the Bodine/French meadow property. In the 18th century, forks and knives were made with very similar handle shapes and decorations, but spoons were made in entirely different styles.
	Pistol butt cap in the form of a grotesque mask for a screw-barrel or holster pistol from the Bray/Letson meadow property. Made in England between 1720 and 1780.
	Salt-glazed stoneware mug with an incised and painted checkerboard motif from the Bray/Letson meadow property. This mug was made in New York City or central New Jersey.
	Fragments of window glass from the Hardenbrook/Duyckinck House property. From the amounts of scrap glass pieces and window leads found at this site, the archaeologists conjecture that windows were being assembled here from imported materials.
