While preparing an area for a new softball field, archaeologists were called in to survey the area first and they discovered a treasure trove of artifacts. The archeologists found these and other skeletal remains, along with ancient pottery and coins. The dates for most of the finds are believed to fall between 43 to 410 C.E. (Common Era), but some may be from as far back as 3500 B.C.E. (Before the Common Era)
