Excavating a Civil War Hut

The videos below show discoveries made during the excavation of two soldier huts I located using  metal detection (vs probing). In each case, the iron, cannister shot and a ration can put me on the firepits of the hut.  Expanding them led to the glass, buttons, bullets, iron eating implements and hatpin discoveries.  I hope you enjoy these windows into the camp life of a civil war soldier.
