Was it on a home site? In the "old days" you would bury a St. Joseph statue to try to sell your home. That might be it

A first for me as wellCool interesting find, congrats. Never seen something like that.
Right, usually just red goopWell damn... I believe your the first digger I've seen pull something other that dirty wax out of a tube.... Well done, thats pretty righteous in my book
Upside down, facing the street when selling or some such superstitionI remember my mom burying a St. Joseph statue after buying her house and then dug him up and buried him again on the next house. Maybe she was doing it wrong, because all I remember is her bitching about losing her ass on both.
ThanksVery cool
Always so much to learnYour find has turned into an interesting learning lesson. Nice!
