Mississippi City (old Harrison County seat, now part of Gulfport)

BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Mississippi · approx. 30.38, -89.05 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1900s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Mississippi Sound, along the historic beachfront

What turns up: Turn-of-century resort and household bottles, blob-top sodas, ceramic shards and buttons in old privy pits behind the beach road, plus glass reworked into the sand by coastal storms.

Access: Gray area.

Gulf tidelands below the ordinary high-water mark are state-owned public trust where removing historic artifacts is restricted; the beachfront lots and uplands are usually private and need the landowner's permission, and state law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
