Abbeville, Wilcox County

BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Georgia · approx. 31.99, -83.31 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1890s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Ocmulgee River

What turns up: Tooled and applied-lip whiskeys, Hutchinson and crown-top sodas, druggist and patent-medicine bottles, and stoneware and naval-stores jugs along the Ocmulgee River bank and at the old landing and bridge below town where cotton and timber were shipped.

Access: Gray area.

The Ocmulgee River bed below the ordinary high-water mark is state-owned public-trust bottom where artifact removal is restricted; the riverbank and landing lots are private and require the landowner's consent; Georgia law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
