This colonoware vessel base was recovered from the Folly Castle site at Manassas National Battlefield Park. Colonoware is a low-fired ceramic made here by African Americans that, in this portion of Virginia, has only been found in enslaved contexts and is not found in African American contexts after the Civil War (see Laura Galke, 2009, Colonowhen, Colonowho, Colonowhere, Colonowhy: Exploring the Meaning behind the Use of Colonoware Ceramics in Nineteenth-Century Manassas, Virginia, “International Journal of Historical Archaeology” 13:303-326). Object creation: This artifact was scanned at the National Park Services Museum Resource Center, located in Lanham, Maryland, using a NextEngine Desktop 3D scanner.

VCL
The Virtual Curation Laboratory at VCU formed through a project with the U.S. Department of Defense’s Legacy Program to develop a digital data project that incorporates the use of a three-dimensional object scanner in recording American Indian and historic artifacts for analysis and conservation. The Virtual Curation Laboratory now partners with institutions across the planet to 3D scan paleontological, archaeological, and historically significant items with the goal of sharing them freely with the world.
