What are these?

Those are old dry cell batteries. Eventually, all that will remain is the carbon rod in the middle. Those are the "C" cell but you can frequently find the carbon rods from "D" cells that are about 3/4" in diameter by 5" long.

I find these rods all the time when exploring the desert.

Got any links to them on the internet or more information?
