Quite a change from Hadrian's Wall, Tim. I expect that if the Legionnaires on the Rhine Limes in 406 had some of these the whole history of the West might have been different.

It's a beautiful day to dig up some mortar rounds
Tim Woler excavates some World War I munitions. I can see why construction crews call in the archaeologists before building on what was the Western Front.

Well it was the next cellar over, so I did not get any closer than to take this picture. Our explosives guy is very good and there was no danger. Surreal though, in a time when we worry about getting splinters from playground equipment....

Ah, the degraded times in which we live. Hemingway would have looked for a tube to launch them. Or detonated them in a lagoon to "go fishing".
