These five ceramic body sherds, from difference vessels, were recovered from an archeological site in Franklin County and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 1984. The site was a multicomponent site, meaning there were multiple occupations there during the Early and Middle Ceramic periods. A cord-wrapped paddle was used by the American Indians to make the roughened surface treatment of this otherwise undecorated sherds.
