The oldest was found along the Savannah River, the dividing line between Georgia and South Carolina; the next-oldest in the Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve on Black Hammock Island off the coast of Jacksonville, Florida, dating to 2500 BC. The pottery shard is believed to be part of an olive jar.
