Grounded

American history in the ground of America. American Savage digs up old artifacts. Age old buttons off a soldier's uniform, spent bullets and dinted musket balls from the Civil War, melted down Spanish gold, rusty knives lost for centuries.

Real objects which once belonged to real people, eons ago.

Forgotten until now.

Some of the history isn't good or happy. Slavery is a touchy topic, even now. Yet a slave's homemade knife is interesting; his slave tag is priceless.

Bricked up safes in gangster era Chicago tell of a violent and shady past. Gun toting cops and angry landlords are only one hazard faced by the digging team. Yet when allowed to dig, the prices are unique and cash raised by the sale of American history is a welcome bonus to the land owner.

Collectors buy the artifacts, saving them for posterity and historians of the future.
