The Amazing Blue Bottle Cave: You Won't Believe What We Found!

The bottle with the blue residue in it could be a bottle of bluing which was used for laundry whitening.
AGGHHHH About time! I found an archeology channel worth bingeing! It's winter time here in Ontario. So its resurch time😫 Great well thought out content. Consistent editing. Magnetic, personable host. Your doing an awesome job. Keep it up brother!
Best digging channel on RUclips for sure. Chigg is an awesome guy..he's definitely not anoying to watch ..he's the only digger I am happy for when he finds good stuff
What a cool cave. It would be really cool if the owners would let you clear that whole thing out. Great little cave to have on your property!
I'd love to have a few dozen of those little blue bottles. They'd make a beautiful string of lights.
a thriving business is born!
Fantastic idea!
The corrugated sheet stuff is what's left of an old washboard
lucasdog1 Oh yeah. I was thinking it was some kind of radiator core.
Yep- I have a glass one with the same pattern on it.
I think it was also used to line the interior of the iceboxes
I also vote washboard. My Grandmother still had her's. The give away is the criss-cross hash marks on the ribs to help add scrubbing action.
Doubt it
Go to Oak island and show them how to find treasure and moar🎄🎅🎁
Since the ceiling has been washed and sculpted by flowing water, I’ll bet the bottom of the cave looks similar. That means you aren’t near the floor of the cave yet! Keep digging!
I would love to see you do a full excavation of that cave!
Could the corrugated copper be part of a washboard?

Nice job, Chigg! But that view to like ratio just can’t be right.
Never under estimate the amount of people who like the cobalt blue glass.
THUMBS UP FOR AQUACHIGGER!!!!!!
I definitely what you to go back!! I can’t imagine how much mystery is in that cave. Hopefully you get to uncover it 😍
Beau when are you going to be detecting solo again?? No offense sir but I don’t like the videos when you are out with other people :( I like the solo chigg
Yeah the solo chigg dosent take people to his good spots lol
he’s been on the buddy system, because Chupacabra
@@henrypatterson1377
You don’t take people to your good spots. Unfortunately most will double back on you!
Friendships have ended because of this. Not to mention the occasional big a$$ fight!
Legend has it, hes still finding blue bottles in his dreams.
The "dyed" bottles had bluing added to make them look blue as decorations. My Grandmother, born in 1913, still did this into the 1990s (with Rawleigh bottles) and told me it was common practice in her day. In latter years she used food coloring instead of bluing
At 5:05 that is a snuff cup. They used to sell snuff in cups like that with a metal lid. So that Copenhagen lid you found might go with the cup.
This cave looks okay, but sometimes you go so deep underground i would get claustrofobic.respect for that!👍👍
The blue bottles are from the Emerson Drug Company, and the product contained therein was Bromo-Seltzer. The name "Bromo-Seltzer" came from one of the original components of the formula, sodium bromide. The formula also contained acetaminophen, sodium bicarbonate, and citric acid, and in earlier formulas, acetanilide. Those particular bottles are from between 1911 and 1930, give or take a few years. It was used to aid heartburn, and due to the sedative effects of the sodium bromide, as a cure for hangovers. Very cool find Chigg, maybe someday I'll get to team up with ya!
Thank you very much for this comment
I have an older bromo seltzer with a backwards Z on the end of seltzer.
The rippled metal is from a wash board
Skiffle !
Definitely old washboard piece. 👍
Yeah! That's what it is
You have enough blue bottles to make a glass bottle window.
The bottle you asked about at 9:10 looks like a pickled pig's feet bottle.
Agree...
Ya, my house was built in 1935 I found one under the original floor
I think you found an old washboard that's what that wavy piece of metal looks like to me
Blue glass bottles are VERY collectible. So much so, that people create fakes to sell by dyeing plain glass ones. (A simple wash and scrub reveals fakes, however). Would love a couple of this kind to add to my collection!
As a firefighter we still have to go into those old fuse panels and check each one after a structure fire to see if the owner stuck a penny in them. People still do it to this day. Problem is if there is a surge it will not blow and will cause a structure fire. If we find it the insurance will not pay.
I think the odd looking clear bottle you asked about is a Heinz Ketchup bottle.
I think it's great how you bring the viewers into the dig
Wow a 42 minute AquaChigger Video!! Christmas came early!!
As mentioned in a previous comment, the corrugated sheet metal looks like the wear surface of an old wash board. I can remember my Mom using them to help clean some of our more heavily soiled clothes when I was a small child back in the 1960’s
Would dig that out stick a house on top and use it as my cellar
That bottle with the clock was cool sucks it was broken
I bet the flies around there are " Blue bottle flies "
Hehe. 😁
Cool day, pretty nice to save 🐓🐔that little guy. Thanks to you all ❤
Windowpane! Now there's an obscure drug reference
Albert Hoffman : )
That takes me back....crazy stuff.
It's still around,not a good as the early 60s but with a possible life sentence I can see why they make it fast and get rid of it faster. Back in the day the chemist's took pride in there products it was more of an art for now it's just for profit.
Why dig out some one else’s bottle dump just to bury it again?
Because. Bottles are awesome. And where they find bottles. You find everything from that era.
Thinking that old copper might be old car or tractor battery plates
That is awesome. I had a collection of old blue bottles I found in the desert. It got forgotten in an attic when we moved once. I would love to dig in that cave.
Blue bottles are the best
I'm going to buy some for my bedroom that has blue and white decor. I love the old blue Noxema jars too, so pretty.
After a closer look at the end I believe that is an old wash board.
My thoughts too.
where I am from . the runners would use small blue bottles for samples to show how good the shine was . it was 2 $ for a blue . and 10 $ for a ball jar . back in 1957
I remember hearing something like that down here in Georgia; I knew it had to be shine. He'd have lost interest in anything else before he could collect that many. 👍👍✌✌Merry Christmas
Towns county Ga here
@@davidoverman3753 Cartersville here. 👋
I live in Ind. so the south is not far from the north . it is just in the proof . north was always better .... lol ..... and a happy new year
rain-soaked Carollton, GA here.
When he came up to the raccoon poop, I was waiting for him to say “Hold your breath!”
Caves like this can hold really important scientific evidence about early Native American man now that the clovis first theory is starting to fall apart.
Has already fallen part
Scientific? hehe
He was drinking the mouthwash......
The slow-zoom slide show as a recap at the end is excellent! I love it.
What is it about people that they have no regard for nature and leave garbage all over the place?
That muck shovel would solve a huge problem of mine. I searched for it, and cant find one. Any info on that?
I LOVE OLD BOTTLES! I'D LIKE TO HAVE EVERY SINGLE ONE YOU FOUND! WHAT TREASURES. THANKS FOR SHARING.
Good morning x I've heard those blue,bottles contained pharmaceutical preparations, even poison. Lol happy huntin
You're partially correct, as that style of bottle with a wide mouth and no neck was often used for things like salves, ointments, and creams which could be prepared by a pharmacy but the blue glass was most common for commercially manufactured products. Medicine bottles tended to be dark brown glass, and anything potentially dangerous - poisons, acids, etc. - usually came in small brown glass bottles with narrow necks, similar to the little patent medicine bottles he finds.
That copper and wood you found is from a wooden wash board. Maid-Rite brand if I'm correct. You can verify the pattern stamped into the metal on EBAY with ones for sale. As you know in the plating process copper is usually used as the first layer to the virgin material. The outer layer...whatever it was was used to not allow staining or rust onto the clothing with the board constantly exposed to water and whatever type of detergent was used.
That little clock bottle that you found that was broke was a mustard jar it was nice mustard and they also sold Tik Tok relish but the top was a kitty bank and had a slot in the top to be used as a bank coin Bank just thought I'd let you know dude I got one here with marbles in it right now
Mark Beatty that was one hell of a run on sentence.
@@JustWowNick didn't know grammar counted I meant to say Nash not nice but it was a mustard bottle
Yup tik toc relish, worth about 3.00 with the lid.
OMG! complain complain complain you snow flakes would melt if you didn't have something to complain about.
“I can see it’s got corn in it!” 😂🌽💩
The little blue bottles are un-embossed Bromo Seltzer bottles. So someone was suffering from constant headaches. I usually dig them where I find a lot of whiskey bottles.
"Windowpane" a reference to Lysergic acid diethylamide???
I LOVE blue glass and blue bottles!! I'm having an absolute fit right now!
Window pane?? You naughty boy chigg!
Is it me or does he sound like Bob Ross
window pane /4 way- a whole 1 was alot 30 hours+ peak in 4 hrs
Little blue bottles once a day. Laudenam time!!
Damn my poor spelling!
cool adventure and a nice Video :-)
I think that the blue bottles would make a great glass wall
CHIGG POWERS ACTVATE 😊
What kind of shovel is that...could really use something like that myself!!!
Omg you’re breaking my heart! You need to screen that dirt. I bet there’s all sorts of buttons and marbles in there. Possibly even coins.
I lost it when you showed the poop and said it’s got corn in it
Nice thos g Carroll and sons whiskey flask. Common but I still don’t have one in my collection. Definitely worth keeping
Amazing! I would love to have a bunch of those blue bottles to get tops for and use to store medicinal herbs and the brown ones for tinctures.
Ain't no bottle worth that.
It makes me learn so about gardens👍🏾👍🏾
Amazing
What was all the blue bottles used for I know you said they said he drank a bottle everyday and thru it in was it a antacid bottle or what
That or maybe it was shine he would hide in the cave and get away from the old lady..
Have you never heard of Histoplasmosis?
Digging in bottle dumps and old house house trash dumps was my favorite thing yo do as a kid into my early adulthood. And these are my favorite Aquachigger videos
Wow, you dig deep enough in there you will start finding ancient relics. People have been using that for hundreds of years years.
Mr. Aquachigger can you tell me what is the song that you put for the end of the video? I love that song and I would love to know it.
... I tried Soundhound (iPhone app) on the song for ya, but there was no match. The last credit in the video ( 41:59 ) says "Aquachigger's Song" by Rich Warner.
Hey chigg! Just wanted to say thanks for the always quality content. Have a happy holiday season!
Another awesome adventure. AAA!! Merry Christmas Everyone 🇳🇿 👊🏻🎅👍🏻 🇳🇿
Merry Christmas Beau, to you and your family. :)
I'm thinking Pickle jar or mayonnaise jar
I was thinking could be a horseradish bottles..
The bones are probably Jimmy Hoffa's.
seems like an odd place to dump stuff. At the beginning I thought it looked like a fire pit, but the ceiling of the 'cave' was green. Just seems a bit 'eccentric' action to dump one's trash in a cave entrance like that......
speaking of eccentricities, I DO love a bottle dump! There's a mother and daughter team in England that collect sea glass and pieces of broken, colored glass. They make homemade beads out of them. Quite fascinating, labor intensive for my liking. Love a good mystery too.
the glass you found at 5 min was a snuff jar...came with a metal lid and when the snuff was gone you had a neat little juice glass. ive found dozens of them.
That was fun, Chigg- thanks for the early Chrismas present! Merry Christmas to you and yours, and to all of Chigg's Army!
I have a bottle just like the one you're asking about Chig. Its an Art Deco design and I found a lot of them on line but no one seems to know what was sold in them. I've kept mine and store dry noodles in it because it is such a nice looking bottle.
The Ball mason jar at 7:20 i believe is #234 in Redbook #9. Circa: 1900's to 1910. 3 loop dropped A. Not valuable at all, but a cool find!
You know the zip code from Scruff McGruff the Crime Dog. That's where I remember it from. That song. :)
So much cool stuff, glad you came back, surely there is some gold coins under all that.
Apparently, Foley & Co made medicinal compounds. The blue bottle might have been from their popular "Honey & Tar Compound" which was for colds and used for pain relief. They were around from the 1870s to the 1920s.
Whats the point of this??? Yeah you can dig bottles but don't take them out of the cave....wtf?
do you have any plans to hit this site with a sifter screen? I think it would be fun.
Probably a coyote , they never get much respect ; )
Wash board, that's what I think the metal and wood is.
Chicago 60609....can't remember what I had for lunch but I remember that zip code.
26:07. a Curry Comb for brushing horses? 35:50 Vulcanite stopper.
The copper thing is a washboard, here's a modern variant: tinglefactor.typepad.com/.a/6a0120a4f9a8ff970b0192aaff311c970d-pi
Scruff McGruff, Chicago Illinois, 60652, that's burned in my brain for life
Man! I wish you could have taken all those little blue bottles and give them to your friends 😉. They are cool!
Could have be bitters bottles? Medicine? Or booze?
Quite the garbage dump there.
Yes! Keep digging it out. Sift stuff if you can. 😉
He does take them and gives some to friends he said.
Very cool yeah?
I'm pleased you REMEMBERED gloves!
The blue bottles were Bromo Seltzer bottles patented by parent company Emerson Drug Company of Baltimore, and made by Emerson's sister company Maryland Glass Company in the Westport section of Baltimore. The glass color was patented by Emerson as "Emerson Cobalt Blue". Original Bromo Seltzer bottles were green. The Maryland Glass Company was demolished around 2014.
" is this like a Murderers Place or something?" Lol....well....YES!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and your family! Awesome cave! luv the old bottles, i love the amber and various blue ones, especially the old perfume one, would love to have those in a collections, one of each of those actually . Nice still shots of the finds! Be careful with all that old dust! Too bad you didn't find any whole crocks in there but I guess i wouln't expect there to be any. seeing the cave struckture i'd say that looks like it could go down quite a ways once it was cleared of everything. It might be a good idea if the owner could be talked into letting you clear it and excavate it, might even add the point could be of historical value and be marked on record cave sites, (sorry forgot organization that does that). I'd sure watch that! if you do get the chance to clear it. :) Awesome video as always!
Never in my life have I ever seen THAT many bottles of the same color in one place! Did you ever try looking into the history to find out of if maybe a glass company was on that site or not?
The Thomas Carol and Son is a Whiskey bottle. What a great dump!
Ever watch the Si Finds channel? He has filmed some Victorian dump digs and Mudlarking on The Thames
Enjoy your vids so much! Cheers!
