Ancient Christmas Symbol Unearthed in Sheepshead Bay

Ice covered the ground just a day or two ago, but the grass around the found objet d’art was still mostly green — is this a Christmas day sign from above? Okay, so it’s not exactly ancient and not fully unearthed — but it sure looks like a symbol of Christmas.

NYPD officers have had the location under surveillance for quite some time (albeit for other reasons) and archaelogists have asked us to not reveal its whereabouts until after the holidays.

Anyone who knows more about this mysterious treasure — which looks like it might be a yuletide anchor, holiday fist of power, Santa’s shovel handle, or reformed Scrooge’s walking stick — is asked to write us with any information.
