On August 21, three of our volunteers attended the unveiling
at City Hall of the finds discovered during an archeological dig which took
place at Lebreton Flats over the summer as part of the environmental assessment
of the City of Ottawa’s new Light Rail Transit System.
The most interesting item was an 18th century cavalry
sword that was found under what would have been a back porch. WHM volunteer and
heritage advisor Ken Clavette did an interview for CBC Television (watch it now) and Metro News
(read it now) regarding the dig.
Here are some photos from the event.
