The Potter's Field Established 1880
When Judas, betrayer of Jesus, repented and returned the thirty pieces of silver, the chief priests refused them, then "took counsel and bought with them the Potter's Field to bury strangers in". Matthew 27:3-10 KJB Thus began the tradition. Names and Death dates of persons given burial in this Potter's Field were recorded.
In partnership with the greater Eureka Springs chamber of commerce and the community development partnership.
