Metal fragment with hole in center, 1630-1650

The Sainte-Marie among the Hurons collection, 1630-1950, contains materials gathered as part of archaeological excavations of the Sainte-Marie among the Hurons settlement. A letter and envelope in the collection detail the inventory of what was sent as well as where some of the items were found. Two boxes with informational labels that contained the artifacts are also retained as part of the collection. The artifacts include a metal axe head, eighteen pottery shards, two pipe fragments, fifteen hand-forged nails, one machine-made screw from a later era, a knife blade, three metal fragments, birch bark, five pieces of charcoal, and a small bag of ash and other scraps.
