Asset Overview

A plain limestone marble recovered during the 2018 archaeological excavation of the house at Eutaw Farm. Marbles such as this are one of the few representation of the lives of children living at the house at Eutaw Farm during the eighteenth and early nineteenth century. It is not possible to specifically attribute this toy to any one specific person and it may have been an object belonging to one of the Hall family children or a possession of one of the several children of the Distance familiy who were enslaved on the farm. Permission has been given for the model to be downloadable for non-commercial educational purposes.
