Күн бұрын

Join Clegg’s Adventures as we find amazing artifacts on the Ohio River and take a walk to possibly the largest ancient Earthworks in the United States. We travel to the top of a mountain where it was reported that remains an ancient Adena mound of some sort. It was described as a man made earthen mound raised 16’ above the mountain top, with a large central stone platform and 1,200 lb. Stones surrounding it.
A link to information on the Earthworks at Bens Run. 1927

I'd like to thank you, Mr. Clegg, for inspiring me to hunt for arrowheads. My wife and I scouted out places on Google Maps and recently received permission to hunt on one of the properties. Yesterday was our first day out looking. We found hundreds of flint flakes (flint is not native in that specific location) and 2 broken points. We were totally surprised and thrilled with our findings! Can't wait to go back out!

I loved this adventure and the history of this wonderful area you live in. I live in Tenn, and when I was young, I used to follow along behind my dad as he plowed tge fields. I had bags of, well, what I called arrow heads. I’ll never know. We moved, only across the field, but I was made to leave my finds, meaning to go back later to get them. But someone disappeared them. Where I live is also so rich in Native American history. Artifacts are not hard to find here, as I too live on a river. I’m determined for my health to get better, as no’s you have me all fired up to get out and start looking!!!! Thankyou and God bless and keep making these videos!!!!

My neighbor (retired conservation officer) stopped by today. By chance, he mentioned hunting for arrowheads. I told him I was already planning. We're gonna hit the creek running through my property once the steelhead stop running. We don't want to disturb the spawning. I constructed a very simple strainer. Basically, it's a milk crate with a plastic screen with 3/8" openings zip tied to the bottom.

You are one of the few people that make videos that I enjoy the explaining even if you are just imagining what might have been or happened. I have heard you say the little heads were for a arrow shot in a bow. I totaly agree with you. I use to make and shoot bows. I wasn't to choosy what wood I used . I gravatated to Swith Cane for arrows and Osage orange for bows and arrows although I did use other types wood on occasion. I could get arrows shooting extremely well with a stone head weighing 87 grains to 100 grains on cane shafts. Most of the long heads we find in my area are atlatl points. They are to heavy for arrows used in bows. Just wanted to thank you for educating us.

Exactly right on that. I think they realized after using darts with large points, they didn’t work so well on arrows. They first went really thin, and eventually just went smaller. Thank you for the good comment.

You kid about getting those vibes, but they are there! I remember a a young kid detecting with my dad and brothers on a civil war battlefield (private land), we would be in a 12 ft high corn field. Many brave men lost there lives in the exact spot (ridge). We would occasionally stop for a break being in the middle of summer. You could feel the energy and at times hear things that you couldn't comprehend. Afterwards we would discuss some of those encounters. All of us at times got they same type of feeling. You would have to experience it, it's hard to explain. I do believe that certain energies remain in places. I've experienced it first hand!!!

Here is some of what happened around this area. Chapter 50 (about 72-67 B.C.) 1 And now it came to pass that Moroni did not stop making preparations for war, or to defend his people against the Lamanites; for he caused that his armies should commence in the commencement of the twentieth year of the reign of the judges, that they should commence in digging up heaps of earth round about all the cities, throughout all the land which was possessed by the Nephites. 2 And upon the top of these ridges of earth he caused that there should be timbers, yea, works of timbers built up to the height of a man, round about the cities. 3 And he caused that upon those works of timbers there should be a frame of pickets built upon the timbers round about; and they were strong and high. 4 And he caused towers to be erected that overlooked those works of pickets, and he caused places of security to be built upon those towers, that the stones and the arrows of the Lamanites could not hurt them. 5 And they were prepared that they could cast stones from the top thereof, according to their pleasure and their strength, and slay him who should attempt to approach near the walls of the city. 6 Thus Moroni did prepare strongholds against the coming of their enemies, round about every city in all the land.

Technically, in the state of Ohio, the landowner along the waterway owns to the middle of the waterway (not the water but the bottom). If the it is "navigable water" they must allow passage through. However if the person navigating the waterway steps from the watercraft onto the bottom of the waterway, that is considered a trespass unless the have prior permission. This is a VERY old law and I do not imagine many landowners know of it. I believe Kentucky has the same or similar type of law.

Thanks Tracy, I’ll check it out! Yea, you can hunt the river. It’s mostly private land. As long as the people don’t care. If you’re in the water, you’re legal anyway. People around here don’t care as long as stuff isn’t left a mess. Most don’t even care about it the river bank, as most of it is rough and unnavigable. Kayaks work best, because some of it, u just cant walk.

The earthworks sound a lot like a means of flood protection. A levee, basically. I'm sure the river rises dramatically at times.

I’m not sure. I’ve never seen it quite that high. It sits back from the river and up a bit higher. I was thinking of protection, be hard to cross that area in between, with darts flying at ya. There are many mysteries

I'm gonna have to respectfully disagree with the ghost town theory. IMO and many others is that after occupying a site for many years they depleted the trees. They had to have wood to cook and stay warm among many other uses. Once they had to go to far to get wood they simply moved the village site closer to the trees. I agree with the other points you made and it was a killer video. Sweet drill and points.👍👊

I think it has to do with resources. These people are going to congregate where the best water, wood, food is. Maybe trees were harvested out and they moved to new area where more easily accessible lumber was? Although if you had a great water source and hunting it’d be hard to leave!

That mound was awesome.what a strategic view of way down to the bend in the river.havnt a constant lookout down the river was the #1 thing all tribes had to do or they died.the violence and no stop wars and raids and mortal enemy tribes was constant.indians killed each other nonstop.and they didnt just take your sqaws and furs.they killed every man or boys.and killed the very young girls and all babies.and killed all the elderly and killed the fat sqaws or the ugly sqaws. And they came by their highways to attack fast and be on their ways fast .to avoid warriors getting back to the village from hunting or mining or after being alerted.the river is their highway and the creeks and tributaries are their smaller roads that take longer to navigate and travel through.

I imagine the indents would help when struck with a hammer stone so the nuts do not go flying. The multiple ones to crack five or eight quickly at a time. Someday someone will figure those out. If the clues could be found around them if it already hasn't been turned to dust over the years.

Not sure if your a religious man at all but id be willing to bet the mounds you talk of and the huge bolders of rock put at high elevations originate from what the book of genesis call the nephelium or (giants) which in the days of noah genesis says" they were in those days and also afterwards!"
