Where: Minnesota · approx. 45.2, -93.39 (vicinity only)
Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Rum River and Mississippi River
What turns up: Sawmill and flour-mill debris at the Rum and Mississippi confluence: hand-blown bottles, stoneware, and privy-pit glass near the old mill races and riverbank dump layers.
Access: Gray area.
The river beds below the ordinary high-water mark are state-owned public trust where removing historic artifacts is restricted; the townsite banks and uplands are generally private and require the landowner's permission. Minnesota law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
