Tortoise Shell Artifact


Adding on to the “Artifact of the Week” I wanted to highlight a particular artifact that was also found at the Brice House. This carved tortoise shell was found in a cache which was located at the base of a lightning rod in the yard of the Brice House. This cache, like the cosmogram found in the East Wing of the Brice House, is also related to West African spiritual practices.
