Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Wabash River, at a historic crossing and river port

What turns up: Champagne Velvet and Terre Haute Brewing beer bottles, blob sodas, whiskey and distillery bottles, embossed druggist bottles, and stoneware in privies behind the old commercial and brewery districts.

Access: Gray area.

The bed of the Wabash River below the ordinary high-water mark is state-owned public trust land where artifact removal is restricted. The townsite lots and riverbank uplands are usually private and need the landowner's permission. Indiana law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
