Aww, my great aunt had one like that where she used to wash clothes in the 30’s-40’s. It was transformed to a planter in her garden in the 80’s. Wish I had it now.
Possibly used to make maple syrup. Too heavy to keep moving back and forth from home to the forest, so they would just bury them at the end of the season, and then dig them up again.
My cast iron bed was buried during the civil war to keep it from being melted down into lead balls for muskets. This probably was too. Important things that could be smelted were buried for the families to dig back up and use at a later date. Also one NC. Huntersville actually. The bed was buried 100 yards from Latta. And was once a bed in the Dr Craven house on Mt Holly Huntersville Rd.
Bro, do you think that you should clean it up, see if you can restore it and then use it for cooking or something else for other reasons! I am just asking.
Legend has it, in the mystic land of Prydain. There was once a king so cruel, and so evil, that even the gods feared him. Since no prison could hold him, he was thrown alive into a crucible of molting iron. There his demonic spirit was captured, in the form of a great black cauldron. For uncounted centuries The Black Cauldron lay hidden, while evil men searched for it. Knowing whoever possessed it, would have the power to resurrect an army of deathless warriors. And with them, rule the world.

Now you take this home, throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. Baby, you've got a stew going
Isn’t pre WWII metal pretty valuable since there is no radiation, or something?
At the same time?? Amazing! I don't do any of that stuff.
Helmets - spittoons
I love little insights into the past like this, thanks for sharing!
I LOVE scalding children and hogs!
Either that or a witch lives in those woods.
Wow. That’s interesting.
Gives a whole new meaning to, ".. and not a pot to piss in".
Have to be a really small hog to fit into that to scald.
Now you take it home and put a nice plant in it.
That’s fascinating thanks for adding this. I love history and it’s interesting to go through what possessions were extremely valuable back then.
Backstory: I bought a 2-acre trashed forest. Every week I clean a little up and
Please please please post an update picture after electrolysis is done?
Where is this forest?
Make sure to test it for lead before you use it for anything! Sometimes cauldrons like this were used to melt lead
[удалено]
What a souper find!
Please post a before and after once you've cleaned and seasoned it
Reading your insta feed and just wanted to say I’ve felt that loss (twice). Bummer.
Youre an odd fellow
That's so cool, your ig has a new follower!
amazing - instant follow here! :)
Restore that shit. Season it until it has a baller patina. Make a yt video about it and profit. I dunno. So many things.
Your page is kickass, thanks for sharing!
My wife follows you on insta. She loves your posts!
You should have had someone from a historical foundation look at it before you cleaned it.
Wow, really want to see it afterwards!
Hard to tell from the picture but is that worth restoring to at least a plant holder? Would be pretty bad ass
It's happening! Overnight electrolysis bath as we speak (type).
Do you want witches? Cause that's how you get witches!
The Black Cauldron... The Horned King may yet live...
Am witch, want cauldron, can confirm
LAAAANNNNNAAAAAAA
Dost thou want to live deliciously?
Yes. Yes I do.
Sisters !
Burying cast iron actually is said to keep witches away. OP should definitely leave it in the ground.
witchesvspatriarchy
That or the Horned King.
Yeah you're screwed
Damn it.
It was buried for a reason
Nah, that's just Caldwell's helmet! Now be a good chap and send it back to Coldharbour. That's a good lad.
I want a forest
Mood.
Literally just commented this too. Wanna go half and half on a forest?
🌳🌴🌲🌲🌳🌴🌳🌲🌲🌳🌴🌲🌳🌴🍁
Now the Horned King will be coming for you
My first thought too
Gurgi would like some crunchings and munchings
Soo far down this list to find this….
ekko ekko cernunnos
The sword from that movie was always so cool
Look at moneybags over here with a forest AND a cauldron.
[удалено]
First you get the money, then you get the forest, then you get the cauldron.
You the king of the forest? This your bush? You have a special bond with this bush?
Hide. You’re marked now
Witches gonna be pissed.
Lived in NC and found two of these with a metal detector. Cool stuff.
That's where I live!
Definitely cursed, but, you know, aren't we all?
Bubble bubble toile and trouble
I’ve seen enough of movies to know this isn’t the start of something good.
Blair Witch 2: Electric Boogaloo
I’d put that back if I were you
Put that thing back where it came from or so help me
You better clean that up before Snape sees it or you’ll be in big trouble
There will be no wand waving or silly rusty cauldrons in my class.
Witches gonna witch.
check for witch bones buried nearby. or, like, a sous vide water immersion device. you might be cursed with foodies.
Bro that’s some straight up toil and trouble. Bury the hatch and sell the land
I think there's far too little mention of the my forest bit ... you have your own forest?
I like saying My Forest, so I do whenever possible. But basically my house sits on 3 acres, 2 of them are wooded (and trashed).
Aww, my great aunt had one like that where she used to wash clothes in the 30’s-40’s. It was transformed to a planter in her garden in the 80’s. Wish I had it now.
The things ppl will do to get out of doing dishes...

Or witches.
Time for chicken stew
You don't want whatever chicken was left in this thing, it's fowl.
Is there a human head in it?
There was an old leather shoe in it.
My instinct as a Swede was “hide that shit”.
They found me Lucky Charms!

First thought I had.
Wow I’ve never heard of that -what a crazy story!
How heavy is it?!
62lbs
That’s fucking incredible, I’m dying to know how old it is.
Do you have a cauldron AND a forest?!
.....I'm not saying it's definitely witches but..... witches!
Best just leave it there and put the dirt back and let it continue its slumber.
The black cauldron can never be destroyed…
So that’s where I left it…
Put it back!
User name checks out.
Wow! Where are the toads & newts?
Getafix would like to make some magic potion.
Not serious at all— there be witches there!
What about the bottle thing underneath it? What’s that?
Vintage “Certo” fruit pectin bottle
I own two forests
Welcome…to the coven. 🖤🪦🔮🧹
watch out for witches!
Its probably cursed, put it back
Why is everyone so heated about him owning a piece of forest lmao
From the image I thought this was an absolutely massive potato. Can't decide which is better
PLEASE do a restoration video. Cast iron restorations are some of the coolest.
you will be killed for finding the immortal cauldron
“My forest” 🤦♂️
You should post this to
Damn, we can own whole ass forests now?
You have a forest?
Please post to

Clean it up and remove the rust. You'll have a great cauldron for whatever you want!
In YOUR forest? No. That’s the witches forest.
A witch is near by, be careful.
It'll buff out
Well it's your cast iron cauldron i guess.
[удалено]
OP look for a menhir quarry in the area.
As a witch, I WANT IT
same!
She's a witch! Burn her!!!
As a cast iron enthusiast, I'm honestly jealous. Cauldrons are very expensive.
I just followed you on Instagram and congratulations on the baby!
Witches.
Your...your forest?
MOONSHINE mash pot
Don't let the local witch know you found it.
I want to own a forest so I can find cauldrons and witch circles
Wow what a find…I mean that in sincerity
Must be the season of the witch
Hit that sucker with some electrolysis and show us what it looks like!
FIX. IT. UP!
Dude put a gurgi in it take over the world.
Man flexing that he has a forest
You own a forest? Cool.
Yo those are worth picking up and restoring if you can.
oh so you just own whole forest??
Any plans to try and clean it up?
Damn all i can find in my forest is dead bodies i buried
A Witches' brew needs to be made.
How big is your forest?
The woods cover 2 acres of my 3 acres
Wish I had a forest.
Witch must’ve been flying over
Congrats on the baby OP!
When shall we three meet again?
Wait.. you have your own forrest..?!
at a certain point you need to ask yourself, why is the a cauldron in the middle of a forest, and what was it used for?
Girl you know you need bury that thing right back where you found it and forget it exists. We just GOT OUT IF 2020
Make sure you destroy it or else the Horned King will grow in power
Bro, do you think that you should clean it up, see if you can restore it and then use it for cooking or something else for other reasons! I am just asking.
I wish I had a forest where I could go looking for buried treasure.
Damn peasants burying stuff in the forest... I bet they hunt too without telling the lord
Witches
It’s haunted, isn’t it?
I hope one day Ill be able to talk about something I found in "my forest".
castiron
You know you've made it when you own a forest.
I wish I owned a forest
This would be an amazing find, I'd kill to restore this and use it. A cauldron that size is crazy expensive, especially an antique.
Tell the witches to start keep hold of their things.

"my forest" ...what a concept!
Bestowed to you by “witches”. It will bring to you knowledge you will not be able to comprehend at first, until your paradigm shifts.
U own a forest?
Das a witchs cauldron and you better run cause its cursed
!RemindMe 3 days
Witches!
Wish I had a forest.
A WITCH! A WITCH!
Old witch house burned down
Do you want witches??? This is how you get witches!
[удалено]
Are you the king of the forest or something?
Toil toil boil and trouble. This cauldron right here will… Probably get you some karma on Reddit.
Now you just need to find some eye of newt
The witches in your forest seeing this post:
Put it back
She's a witch
Watch out. Looks like you got witches in your woods.
A witch! Burn her.
WITCHES!
Fuck, now the witches of Habershire are awake again and one of us is going to have to take them out.
When shall we three meet again?
