I was fortunate enough to participate in an archaeological excavation on the Green Fort in Sligo, Republic of Ireland, this summer. The site is a 17th century bastioned artillery fort. It was used periodically and underwent several periods of demolition and burning. When use ceased, was still visited up until the modern day. Over a thousand artifacts were found in the excavation, including stone tools, lead musket shot, and marker caps.
