Potter's Field

A potter's field is a place for the burial of unknown people. The term apparently comes from verse Matthew 27:7 in the New Testament of the Bible, in which priests take 30 pieces of silver returned by a repentant Judas and "used the money to buy the potter's field as a burial place for foreigners." It was not called "the potter's field" because a potter owned it, but rather because the land was not good for growing crops, and therefore could only be used by potters to dig clay. Washington Square Park in New York City was originally a potter's field. Potter's Field is also the name of a 12 Stones CD. The discography is as follows: 1) Shadows 2)The Last Song 3) Far Away 4) Speak Your Mind 5) Lifeless 6) Bitter 7) Photograph 8) 3 Leaf Loser 9) Stay 10) Waiting for Yesterday 11) In Closing
