Volunteers gathered in Hubbard Park for another excavation in which old ceramic was found, as well as bottles, parts of a doll’s face, animal bones, and seeds that passed through someone’s body. All of the items were found 6 feet underground, and the items will be stored in the University of Iowa’s Clinton Street Building. The purpose of collecting these items is to find out more about the history of Iowa City. The items that are found are never assigned a financial value but only kept for the Iowa City’s records.
