FEW MORE RELICS FROM HOMESITE NEAR PETERSBURG

Went to the new homesite for 3 hours and saved a few more relics. They are getting ready to start the 2 houses so I don't have much longer to hunt. Dug 6 bullets, 6 percussion caps, a knapsack hook and a couple pack rivets. Thanks for looking.
 
Nice finds. I think that is a sling hook instead of a knapsack hook, a bit of leather still on it, very nice.
 
I think you are right. Looked in my relic book and it looks like a sling hook. The knapsack hooks are smaller.
 
Thanks for the ID on the sling hook. I have a nice one I found just off I-75 on a hill in Kennesaw. The site was hunted by lots of people who crossed an old fence and went into the woods. I found it about 2' past the fence... I think everyone walked right by it while turning on their machine. No one ever seems to want to hunt near the parking...

Yeah Julien, its funny how I've made some of my better finds while heading back to my car. Now what mile marker was that hill at off I-75?:devil:
