Apollo (storeship)
The Apollo is a historic storeship that is buried at a location in downtown San Francisco, California. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1] Parts of the ship have been uncovered, most recently in 1921 and 1925. Photographs from the 1921 uncovering exist. The 1925 excavation revealed coins from 1797, 1825, and 1840, a gold nugget, and assorted navigational pieces.[2] One of numerous buried ships within San Francisco,[3] it is an archeological site, listed at least partially for its potential to yield information in the future.[2]
