Building material

Oh, welcome to a special Halloween episode of Overthinkers Anonymous.

I'm Clayface Aiken, and I'm an Overthinker.

And I named myself this because I haven't seen Clayface, but I did watch Wildwood, which is Claymation.

So I've been all about, I've been all Claymation-minded lately, I guess.

Like my thoughts are in Claymation.

Every time I visualize something in my mind's eye, it's like Claymation.

That's how much I loved that movie.

And also Clayface Aiken.

Welcome to Construction Materials.

This is the part of the exam where the building stops being lines on a page and becomes real stuff.

Concrete, steel, wood, brick, insulation, the things you can actually touch.

A study of these ancient objects which were buried under the soil at Jamestown for many decades reveal in many ways how the English colonists lived on a small wilderness island over 300 years ago.

Artifacts on earth include pottery and glassware, clay pipes, building materials and hand-wrought hardware, tools and farm implements, weapons, kitchen utensils and fireplace accessories, furniture hardware, lighting devices, eating and drinking vessels, tableware, costume accessories and footwear, medical equipment, horse gear, coins and weights, and many items relating to household and town industries, transportation, trade and fishing.

These artifacts provide invaluable information concerning the everyday life and manners of the first Virginia settlers.

A brief description of many of them is given on the following pages.

The first rude shelters, the split wood fencing, the clappered roof, punch-in floors, cupboards, benches, stools, and wood plows are all examples of skilled working with wood.
