. Bulletin - United States National Museum. Science. Figure 19.— Two earthenware "bird bottles" believed to be of Rogers' lead-glazed earthen- ware showing drainage holes in sides. Bottle on left is from a house chimney near Green Spring and, on right, is from the James Geddy House in Williamsburg. Height 18.42 centi- meters, and 21.91 centimeters, respectively. it may be suggested that the reference is to bottles similar to those discussed here. In support of this conclusion, attention is drawn to the fact that Rogers' new bottles were valued at 3d each, while Burdett's (used ?) seven years later were appraised at 2, 14d.95 It seems evident that the Rogers earthenware was fired to biscuit, glazed, and fired again in a glost oven; no other explanation accounts for the large quantities of unglazed earthenware found at York- town. Mr. Maloney's experiments at the Wil- liamsburg Pottery have amply demonstrated that the 115 Since this paper was written and the bird bottles identified, i number of , idditicn.il fragments have been recognized among mid-eighteenth-century finds from Williamsburg excavations, including a small, pierced lug handle fitting the scar on the Geddj example (fig I'1, right). The hole through the handle lined up with that through the shoulder clearly indicating that their combined purpose vs.is to provide an alternative method of suspension for use when the bottles were hung in trees. Yorktown earthenware could have been glazed in the green state and would not have required a second fir- ing. Furthermore, the study of a late-17th-century kiln site in James City County has confirmed that not all potters thought it necessary to make glazing a separate process. It is curious that the Rogers factory- found it desirable to take this second and seemingly- uneconomical step. The making of stoneware cer- tainly would not have been a double-firing operation, and, although some of the pieces actually are fired no higher than the earthenware, they h
