Description: This antique map from 1895 showcases the Mississippi River’s lower Tensas and Homochitto regions, with detailed illustrations of all levees built during that time. Measuring 22x9 inches, this map is in good condition and beautifully captures the intricate network of levees that played a vital role in flood control and land development in the late 19th century. This map also highlights the strategic placement of levees along these key sections of the river, which helped manage water flow and protect nearby lands from flooding. This map would make a stunning addition to any collection of historical maps, especially for those interested in Mississippi River engineering, flood management, or U.S. infrastructure development.
