It is an ongoing project to compile a complete pictorial directory of all Confederate Generals who participated in that unholy war; many who have long been forgotten.

Indian artifact collecting is a hobby enjoyed by thousands of people and it goes a long way in helping to preserve artifacts from history that might never be found otherwise. It is illegal to dig for artifacts without a landowner's permission, or on state-owned and controlled lands or submerged lands.
