Ozrus cast Create Water atop the object to rinse the dirt off, then used Prestidigitation to dry and clean the surface to see if there were any new hidden details. He commented to Cassandra, "Well, it is made of stone, so a Stone Shape spell might be usable. But I am thinking lifting this thing will be the right way to go. Possibly unscrewing it too."
Ozrus contemplated his options, saying his thoughts out loud so that Cassandra could weigh in as well. "I could always Shapeshift into something large and strong. Probably an earth elemental so that I could check this thing out underground as well. Or I could summon a creature of even greater strength. Alternatively, as I alluded to earlier, I do have the spells prepared commonly called "Stone Shape" and "Soften Earth and Stone" if those would be useful. I can't soften this container directly with the second spell, but I could loosen the dirt around it." He studied the container thoughtfully for a few more moments, then asked Cassandra, "Do any of those sound like the right way to go? Or do you have any alternative ideas?" He gave the ring a tug and twist, just out of curiosity.
Cassandra, feel free to choose any of the options Ozrus mentioned and he will use it/them. He has Summon Monster V and Summon Nature's Ally I through V available, and can use the Wild Shape options that a level 10 druid has.
