Dear HistArch, (sorry for any cross-listings)

We are pleased to announce that the BLM's Historic Bottle Website (HBW) has
a new home on the SHA website. You can access it by going directly to this
link: http://www.sha.org/bottle/index.htm You can also locate it by going
to the SHA website's new Research Resource pages, where you will find an
array of other information available for historical archaeological research.

If you are unfamiliar with the HBW, there is a description of/guide to that
website in the SHA's online Technical Briefs series
(http://www.sha.org/publications/technical_briefs/default.htm). Simply go
to the Technical Briefs link and scroll down to the technical paper
entitles, "Overview of BLM's Historic Glass Bottle Identification and
Information Website," Technical Briefs in Historical Archaeology 1: 16-20,
by Bill Lindsey. Bill Lindsey created the original website and will
continue to update and expand the Historic Bottle website in his pending
retirement. So be sure to visit <http> again and
again to take it all in.

Regards,

Kelly Dixon, SHA Website Editor
Christopher Merritt, SHA Webmaster
Bill Lindsey, HBW Author & Webmaster
