Abstract
Founded in 1702, Port Dauphin was the Gulf coastal port for the main French colonial settlement of Mobile, 80 km (50 mi.) to the north. Excavations on Dauphin Island at the stockade site (1711–1722) and, most recently, at a portion of Port Dauphin Village (primary occupation, ca. 1715–1725) have yielded archaeological data from the second and third decades of French occupation. Coins and European ceramics from these sites shed light on the relationship between status and trade among the inhabitants of the early French settlement on Dauphin Island.
