Nether Poppleton. Hee. I love English place-names. Sounds like a fascinating show.
Mostly Native American artifacts here, I suspect. I did hear James Delgado (Sea Hunters) speak about some of what he's excavated in SF, though, and there could be more there than you think. He was describing how many ships, abandoned by their gold-seeking crews in the 1840s, were turned into floating hotels or warehouses or businesses - only to end up partly burned and then covered over with earth after the great fire. 1906, wasn't it? He told the tale of one excavation of an entire hull of a ship well inland from the current bay shoreline. Cool stuff.
