When I was a kid living at a Children's Home in Denton Texas around 82 or so, a Family from Church adopted me so to speak and would invite me to their home on the weekends occasionally. They lived on a rather large property outside Denton and on their property was a historical registered landmark that was at one time a Native American encampment that also had large kiln where they would made pottery. There were a few creeks on the property and one day, I actually got to go and search for Arrow Heads. It was the most profound and amazing feeling in the world finding one. The Mother took me down into the creek and gave me a small garden hand rack and told me to start gently clawing away at the exposed earth on the banks of this creek. It wasn't long before 2 or 3 arrowheads feel from the earth. I was 13 or so then. I am now 54. I sure wish I had those arrowheads but they were lost by a kid, myself that didn't know any better. I remember being in a euphoric daze after finding the 1st one. And even better story is that I was in a relationship with a girl for nearly 8 years and during this time I got to know and become very close with her Family and in particular, her Grand Parents. Her Grandfather worked at a Concrete Plant in Florida in the 70's. His job was to operate heavy machinery that harvested sand from the land and shores of the property for this Concrete Plant. The machinery would scoop up the sand and pull it into large hoppers via a long conveyor belt where the sand would then be sifted to remove any debris. Part of this job was to watch the sand come up the conveyor belt and watch for large rocks, etc that could potentially jam up the machinery. The machinery was massive enough that he had a small area to stand or sit at, with a large umbrella and perform his job. Over the handful of years that he worked there, he pulled tons of spear heads from the conveyor belt. He actually showed me his collection and it was stunning. He had several very large spear points. Some were 8 and 9" long and all brilliantly white. All of them. One spear head in particular was 11" to 12" long. Some were broken as well. I told him I thought some of those very large speak points might be extremely valuable and that's when he told me that when they found those type of artifacts, the state of Florida required them to shut the plant down and call the state. But he said, they never did and would just continue working. I guess closing the plant down all the time would have cost the company a lot of money. This was over 50 years ago and he has since passed away recently. He had dozens of very large Spear heads. The exact ones you see in Museums. And again, all were brilliantly white and still razor sharp after all that time. I am no expert but whatever those spear heads were, it must be native to Florida.

Good information so I feel I need to reciprocate on one of my most productive methods. Groundhog dens. When the groundhog digs them on a slope or a creek bank they will push the rocks out with the dirt as they dig. Weather will was the dirt away but the rocks will stay put. Dig it up and go through it by hand or if water is handy use a screen to wash out the dirt and clean the rocks up. Just have to wonder how many groundhogs have cut their paws on a discarded blade while digging a den.

@@cleggsadventures it seems to me the best place to find them is just inside the woodline at the top of the bank which puts them just slightly below the top of the slope. Better still of there is a hay field of some sort next to the woods. A lot of the time they will have a dive hole in the field which connects to the main den entrance which will be in the woods just a little way from the top of the bank. But you don't have to have a river for there to be things to find. Because as you say the river will wander over the years and what is a mile or more off the river now may have been right on the river's edge thousands of years ago.

Clegg's next Adventure: How to master flight!! I also used to have success checking out eroding sides of hills!! Some of my own personal best finds with a higher frequency of unbroken arrow and spear heads.........I like your idea of a concentrated flashlight beam and believe this combination could usher in even greater results!!

Awesome video and great info for people trying to get into the hobby like myself. One thing I did not see you cover in this video that I have run into is when am I allowed to sift or dig on the banks of the river? Is it legal to dig for arrowheads on the river say in the city limits of places like Cincinnati or Dayton?
@cleggsadventures2 жыл бұрын
Thanks Much! You’ll have to ask someone down there, I’m not sure of the laws where you are.
@jimshurtzer2 жыл бұрын
Look at the laws of your state very closely. I'm in Indiana. We are not allowed to pick up any artifacts from public lands or public waterways. I've read news stories of very hefty fines. Indiana does allow digging. As long as it's not public land and it isn't a known Indian site. And you have permission from the land owner Read the laws of your state very closely. If it's still unclear to you. Inquire with your department of natural resources. They'll have the answers you seek.

Have you ever been to the knap-in at Flint Ridge? I stumbled across one of your videos through a YT recommendation. You immediately looked familiar to me and the only thing that I could figure was that I might have met you at one of our Flint Ridge knap-ins. I've been digging and collecting Flint Ridge for about 45 years and especially like when you show your Flint Ridge finds. Love your videos! Keep up the great work!

Very informative. The camera work was awesome, I lmfao. 😄 The flashlight thing hit me like a spit wad in science class tho, but makes total sense. Been wanting to get into some creek hunting, yet to do it. I've surface hunted nearly the entire eastern half of Ohio for nearly 40 years but never in creeks etc. Like to watch all the videos out there to pick up tips and techniques for spring 23. Great vid 👍👍👍👍

Thanks Cleggy, very useful insight! I think this should help me find my first artifact. Hey I’ve wondered about looking around the holes of tree stumps after a big tree goes down. Even looking through dirt in the root system of a large newly fallen tree . Ever try this, or think it could be another possible way to look?
@cleggsadventures2 жыл бұрын
I thought of this also, but all the ones I’ve seen so far have been on the side of big hills. I bet if you found one on a nice flat somewhere, probably have a good shot. They bring up a lot of dirt.
@reidwinsjansen38472 жыл бұрын
Hey James, I always thought the same thing. I have been crawling under and into the holes of fallen trees looking since I was a kid. And still haven't found one in there. But I won't give up. I'm 46 years old now and I still climb down in the hole to look. That feeling of finding that beautiful piece of history cannot be replaced. In my opinion of course.

99.9% of the artifacts you’ll find are from past living areas. Unless something was dropped in the valley, which is very unlikely
