This glass bottle stopper was collected from the Hyatt Townsite in Anderson County and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 2007. Bottle stoppers were essential to close sealed bottles to the air once they had been opened. Some bottle stoppers were meant to be disposable, while others such as this one could be reused. Hyatt was established in 1856 and abandoned in the 1860s.
