BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Kentucky · approx. 38.77, -84.0 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Ohio River, Bracken County

What turns up: River-landing druggist bottles, blob-top and mineral-water sodas, and tobacco-warehouse debris along a compact historic waterfront.

Access: Gray area.

In Kentucky the bed of the navigable Ohio River below the ordinary high-water mark is state-owned public-trust bottomland where removing historic artifacts is restricted; the riverfront and uplands above the line are typically private and need the landowner's permission. State law protects archaeological sites and unmarked graves, so avoid disturbing them.
