Many of the pottery shards contained here came from the Castle Creek Site on Upper Front Street, in Binghamton, New York, and from the Port Dickinson sites. Sadly, the Castle Creek Site is now under a Lowe's Home and Harware Center, and the Port Dickinson sites are covered by neighborhoods of nice homes. That fact alone makes these shards so important as these sites will never again produce artifacts like them again. The shards give us an idea of who lived there, for how long they lived there, and what they used as pottery utensils. My only regret is that I did not have the money to buy all that was offered. I have been able obtain pictures of some of the materials that I could not afford as a help to those who are interested in the pottery traditions here in Broome County as well as other important artifacts. It is my hope that you enjoy this rare look into the ceramics culture of the Souther Tier of New York.
Also be sure to look at some of the other artifacts that came from these famous Broome County sites that I have obtained photos of.
