These slides were taken during an archaeological excavation at the Baker Store, 14MO701. Shown are progress shots of the excavations, cellar walls visible after excavation, and artifacts in place (in situ) prior to their removal. The excavation at the Baker house and store, in Morris County, was undertaken by Emporia State Teacher's College (now Emporia State University) in 1972 and 1973. The house and store were burned in 1862 by "Bloody Bill" Anderson and his cohorts. The collection, along with these slides, was donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 1993.
