Very unusual Neolithic urn. This item was produced for burial, and was never actually used outside of the burial area. The shape of this vessel is visually similar to Greek pottery from a slightly more recent period. Produced ca. 2500 BCE.

Here is an amazing opportunity to research unique documents online, available throught the efforts of the Pamplin Historical Park.

Pamplin Historical Park and the Museum of the Civil War Soldier is proud to have among our collection of artifacts and images, a large archive of documents dating from the 18th to 20th Centuries – including the famed Wiley Sword Collection which was donated in 2015. Many of those documents are too delicate for display, so to advance our mission of education and preservation we are making digital versions of these invaluable resources available to the public for use and research.
