These artifacts were in the backfilled soil of the young colonist's grave. They include fragments of Native American ceramics from the Late Woodland period, and a stone point. The Native American artifacts were probably left by people at Jamestown before the English arrived. The European artifacts in the graveshaft are a fragment of green-glazed Border ware ceramic, and a blue glass Nueva Cadiz bead.

All of these objects were mixed in the soil that filled the grave shaft and not intentionally placed in the grave itself. The artifacts give us some idea of the time period of the burial, because they all were probably manufactured before 1600. The date of these artifacts and the fact that we did not find any later artifacts leads us to conclude that the grave was filled sometime in the earliest years of colonial settlement at Jamestown.
