Looking for More Dates If you know some more good dates for COMMON artifacts (no one-of-a-kinder’s or specialty items, please), and would like to contribute to this web page, please contact Catherine H. Spude at the email below. Your contribution can be viewed by visitors to the site, and she’ll update the page on a fairly regular basis (she says hopefully). Comments, corrections, and suggestions are also welcome. Please include fully referenced citations — including page numbers — in the editorial style used by Historical Archaeology. To the extent possible, lets avoid unpublished materials or gray literature (although I have already violated that rule). However, lets try to make these sources easy for others to find. If you find a better source than one already listed, please pass it on. E-mail http://groups.msn.com/20thCenturyArtifacts/messages.msnw
