    Skull & Crossbones Poison, Huge Clay Marble Hoard, etc. (June 22, 2023)

    That is a great description my friend! I’ve stood on old roadbeds in the woods on a crisp fall day and imagine the horse and buggy coming by throwing old bottles off in the gullys.

    Historical Maps

    I used to get the USGS gov topo maps and look for old county road beds which even showed abandoned house places sometimes. Then finding these old roads, one could see the old buttercups, Spanish bayonets or wisteria plants that were dead giveaways to old house sites often next to the old road...

    Advice for first permission dig? 1760 home site

    Just don’t scare ‘em off. :) Good stuff! Stand back and carefully look over the site and see what your eyes can imagine…. Dips/ pipes/ brick pile, indentions , anything unusual. Pretty much what Willong said. Good luck!!

    Early Abandoned House with antiques inside!

    1870's/80's dump dig

    Wow... super nice. Been a few moons since I been in a good dump site! Now a days I’m relegated to a quick look into a creek bank or walking over a grated work site... or kicking some leaves at an old house site... lol

    Mississippi soda water bottle

    Howdy DownSouthPhil.... I just noticed this post. I was born and raised in Ackerman and my dad was a mayor there at one time! Yes indeed Ackerman is small but it was founded in 1884 and had 2 railways. I hunted the creeks there and found a lot of stuff over the years. Bottle wise, Ackerman...

    Looking to Dig along local Creek

    I noted in larger creeks you sometimes will see bottles and glass shards washing out of the side of the bank. I ran into Hutchinson bottles actually sticking out of a bank and knew right where to dig!
