Is that story fiction?

sadly it is all true. But I would question what some of the early excavators reported. I think there may have been some red herring that kept the treasure frenzy going.

Dugout,

I never heard that word before? I think you may have coined a new word.

A word I use of similar intended definition is "bottleiferous" (as in fossiliferous). It is actually standard terminology between my father and I. [:D] We have a habit of extemporaneously creating words using greek/latin roots whenever necessary for the sake of succinct clarity. They may be inventions but hell, every element of any language was invented at some point or another, and if it makes sense then why not?. Bottlefull is perfectly sensical, fewer syllables too. I encourage further word inventions. It keeps things fresh. [:)]

That is why I chose to use the word "Ashhole"

definition-
"A deep hole filled with ash with nothing on the bottom" [8D]
