Jamestown Wine Cellar Believed Unearthed


Eight glass bottles have been unearthed in a brick-walled space that may have been the wine cellar of a house dating from the close of the 1600s in Jamestown.

The intact, gourd-shaped bottles, which were found without corks, were likely empty when they were stored in the cellar, said Bill Kelso, director of archaeology for the Jamestown Recovery Project. Archaeologists initially believed they contained remnants of wine.
