Pewter Ornament

Pewter Ornament

This pewter ornament in the form of an amaryllis came from Pit 3. It could have ornamented a small box, but objects such as this were also given as tokens of love or loyalty. Could this have been given to a loved one who was traveling to an unknown fate in Virginia?
