Archaeologists in Hannover, Maryland came in rare artifacts, who have relations with American elimination Harrott Tubman.
The withdrawal was led by the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) at the site of Tubman’s father, Ben Ross’s house.
MDOT secretary Paul Widefeld said in a press release, “The plates, pitches, bowls and more pieces found on the site of Hariot Tubman’s father’s house give us more information about how the family lived 200 years ago.”

The house sits deep into the Wetlands of Blackwatter National Wildlife Refuge, which was established in 1933 as a refuge for migratory birds, according to the American Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS).
Archaeologists first discovered the house in 2021 using historical documents, where it was revealed where it stood.

Tubman inspired other slaves to freedom, who operated more than 70 people through the underground rail route network of the eliminations.
According to the National Park Service, “During public and private meetings during 1858 and 1859, Tubman repeatedly told people that she had rescued 50 to 60 people in eight or nine trips. It was in December 1860 before her very final mission, when she brought seven people, according to the National Park Service.
