How To Find Arrowheads. Simplest Ways

Thanks!

Thank you very much Walter! That is Very Much Appreciated! It will be put to good use for sure. Have a great Holiday 🎄

[@chrisduffy2737]

I've never arrowhead hunted. Never was taught. Never thought about it. However, I'm a fisherman who usually fishes from a boat. I'm 80 now and boating is becoming difficult so I'm fishing more from the bank. I live in tidewater Maryland where there's plenty of creeks and plenty of places like you show on the Ohio River. You've inspired me to get up off my lawnchair waiting for the fish to bite and hunt those gravel bars and creek banks. It would thrill this old man to find an arrowhead.

[@cleggsadventures]

Right y! Yeah, just hook one of those little bells on the pole and go looking. Never know

[@Dirtydetective]

This guy is hilarious. He taught me everything I know about arrowhead and artifact hunting. The other day I found something amazing! It's made of granite and one end comes to a long point and looks like a 747 with a long nose and is round and bulbous on the other. Obvious signs of being used to hammer stuff and it's got jagged slicing where it looks like it was used to resharpen points, anyway, I'm told it was likely in an effigy mound and is something very rare to find. It's an effigy piece.

[@robertwhite3752]

What I love more than any other thing in your videos is the fact that you can clearly see that you really care about the people who once lived here . Your compassion towards them shows, and it’s contagious. You get me excited about doing this again in my own life. As a young boy growing up on a large farm in Northeast Ohio I was privy to many acres of woods, open fields and ponds. And while my mother and father lived here in Ohio my grandparents and lots of aunts, uncles and cousins lived in West Virginia. Big Otter to be exact. Many of them worked the coal mines in West Virginia and several also worked here in Southern Ohio for AEP during much of the older strip mining era in Muskingum, Noble and Coshocton counties. I also had family who lived in Cumberland Ohio and who worked on Big Musky, the largest dragline ever built by man. I have fished and hunted the area with my family my entire life and found lots of amazing things. One of my uncles has a very extensive collection of primitive arrowheads, spear points, etc. Indeed they were much, much more than just tool makers, hunters and gatherers. They had names. They had families. This was their land. What I wouldn’t give to be able to go back and just talk with them for awhile. I bet they had no problems identifying exactly what a woman was?🤔🤷‍♂️ Thank you very much for your adventurous spirit. It is a great thing, and highly contagious!!

[@cleggsadventures]

Much Appreciated, I’d love to go back and see what it was like

[@xSKASKSx]

Many native american tribes have a concept called two spirit - people who were male, female, and sometimes intersexed individuals who combined activities of both men and women with traits unique to their status as two-spirit people. In most tribes, they were considered neither men nor women; they occupied a distinct, alternative gender status. Stay in school, folks!

[@kerryprance3767]

My family is from the mountains of N. Georgia ( Hiawasee/ Young Harris). Heavily Indian populated country. ( most everything around there has Indian names) One of my great uncles owned a mountain that was adjacent to bottom farm land. He found ( when plowing) so many arrow heads and LARGE spear points that he used ( probably a 100) of them to inlay his back steps. Some were 6-8 inches and in perfect condition. He said that if you hiked up on the mountain that you could find small fired clay balls. IF you broke them open they always had something inside them. A bead, a feather, a bone.... Always something.

[@cleggsadventures]

I would love to find something like that!

After it rained one day I was checking out where the rain downpoured in front yard and found what I think is a small bone-it has one side where it has been chopped-clean. It’s about 2 inches long and the round size of dime fossilized and off white. Boggles my mind-Can’t figure out what it is-how it got there-who cut it?

[@jimajello1028]

Information that you may be interested in. The bow and arrow has been in service at least 36 thousand years. Drawings in caves in Scandinavia show them and tell a story. In North America the spear thrower was probably used within some of the same time period as the bow and arrow.

Thanks for another great video. I enjoy your commentary, especially the part about the ancients' lives being a lot more than our stereotyped ideas of them. And I too would also like to be able to go back in time as an observer just to see how they lived and the details of the prehistoric Ohio River Valley and adjoining landscapes and forests. Cool tips too. Much appreciated.

[@eneeland]

Have you ever read "Captured by the Indians" by Frederick Drimmer? It's about the true history of a very brutal and savage people who killed with glee, scalped their victims, and worse. You might want to rethink your idea about going back in time.

[@jasonlangmead8418]

A friend of mine found a piece of bone (looks like vertebrae) with an arrowhead stuck in it . The bone had actually grown around the arrowhead so obviously it did not kill whatever animal it was . Seeing that got me real interested in hunting for arrowheads . Haven't found many though . I will try to use some of your techniques . Thanks for the channel !

[@cleggsadventures]

Thanks Jason!👍

[@robertscott5566]

Cool fact.. the eskimos new that whales lived a couple hundred years they finally believe that because I don't think Europeans realized a lot of things back then without technology but way after it was me illegal to kill whales except if you were Eskimo for religious beliefs and such they had found old ancient spear points in a whale that had been probably harpoon when it was a young one!! I just wanted to tell you guys that I thought that was really cool and the thing about the bone growing around that Arrowhead made me remember that!

[@johnnydoe9874]

I have a FL. Collection but find arrowheads everywhere near water. Started with digging a stump in my small yard across from a creek. Chest points n pottery pieces. Dug the yard for 5 years n got 11 nice points, hammer drill n pottery. Now I check road ditches near known camps. I'm hooked for life. Now I'm in va. Looking for civil war n still find arrowheads. The thrill is great when you find a nice piece an that chill runs down your spine. Loved you video, good luck to you. ED

[@creekfinds]

Thanks for pointing me to this video on why artifacts are found down the slopes of hills. It only makes sense that its done over a long period of time as rain washes everything down. I have a somewhat extensive collection from nearly 25 years of hunting primarily creeks, rivers, and lakes. I do have hunting access to tilled land, but the majority (and the most fun for me) come from the water ways. I'm basically self taught when it comes to hunting techniques and when and where to go. Really looking forward to watching your videos and seeing ways I can improve & new ways to go about it.

[@cleggsadventures]

Thank you. Yea, a lot of hillside can erode over that long. Good luck to ya out there 👍

[@Pointtostones]

Clegg, I did this same thing on my mountain site. I waited for a few good rains and went back. I usually pull out 3-4 good points and a pocketful of broken bases. Every time it rains now, new material gets exposed. This is one of my best methods for finding points at that site.

[@cleggsadventures]

[@connorsutherland7893]

Nutting stones were used to crack nuts. Acorns, hazel, hickory, etc. A nut is placed in the hole and another rock is used to smash it open. Holes are created through continuous smashing in the same place with the same sized nut. Once the hole go too big, they would use a bigger nut with that hole and start another smaller hole on the same rock for smaller nuts. The acorn was a staple food source back then and almost everyone in a native community would come together to process acorns, each with their own nutting stone. A practice still continued today in some places

I’ll never forget the first time I was able to go in the woods with my dad. I was 17 and I soaked in as much as I could. I wasn’t able to see him while growing up so it hit a bit different. Looking for ginseng and a few other roots, and enough Ramps for a meal(wild onions that had you smelling like them for days after). Hunting, fishing… I loved it. It was in WV and this area your in reminded me of that time. When I finally moved back, I wasn’t healthy enough to do that sort of stuff anymore. I used to walk up the hillside and get to the top where there was a bit of a large rock, and just sit. Watch wildlife and listen to the sounds on a summer afternoon. It was so relaxing I even took a few naps up there.

[@cleggsadventures]

Very Nice Memories there. I used to dig Yellow Root for money as a kid. Ginseng is getting hard to find. I’m in Northern WV Tyler County

Hi Clegg . I live along the Delaware river bordering Pa & Jersey. Lenni lenape indians lived here and in Jersey and new york state. The Delaware is the only un damed river east of the Mississippi! I knew this old man who farmed during the 30's this property just like you are describing. There is flooding along the Delaware sometimes really bad but the land is for the most part stable. This old boy had one hell of a collection. When you found that tiny point I was reminded of the tiny points in his collection. He called them bird points for bringing down winged pray. I would have thought that the natives would have used a more blunt tip, like a wrap of hide to knock the day lights out of small game Alright then thank for giving insight as to how and what to look for . be safe out there

"watch out for poison ivy at the river" -- treat ivy oil removal the same way as dirty crank case oil removal: dawn dish soap and a rough shop towel to scrub with. Ivy oil sticks as well as grease but is clear so it's hard to know were it is plus needs to be mechanically removed with a wash cloth or paper towel. Even at the beginning stages of itching you can use this method to get it off and stop further symptoms (no itching), if blistering then you risk breaking the blisters.

@@cleggsadventures Yes I discovered some pottery and flint pieces and I`d go back and dig and always find good arrowheads, clay marbles, and large pottery pieces. I`m a huge fan of digging for them because if you find the right area you can sometimes find a huge amount of arrowheads. My friends and I found crazy amounts of arrowheads in one area way out in the woods. I used to dig into the sides of river and creek banks. We`d paddle or use a trolling motor in a tiny plastic bass boat I had and look for anything sticking out of the banks. They logged the hunting area where I found a site after I moved and my friends said they found a lot of stuff. I`ve used screwdrivers and makeshift probes in sandy areas to find beautiful arrowheads. There used to be a stock law here where humans and animals could go anywhere. Now there are no trespassing signs everywhere so we can`t even fish or swim in the creeks anymore or hunt relics, metal detect, hunt, or anything without paying a huge fee to be allowed on leases.

@@baneverything5580 sounds like around here, everyone so private about their land. Some let people hunt though. I would like to do a dig sometime soon if I can get permission

[@PushnButtons62]

Very cool idea/job on your glasses. Great video

[@cleggsadventures]

Much Appreciated 👍

[@donaldross8597]

Thanks for new ideas and locations

[@cleggsadventures]

No Problem Donald, thanks for watching. 👍

[@brandonmanuel3284]

I like the info that comes with every find!!!

[@cleggsadventures]

Thank you

[@thehillbillyhoarder4996]

Very entertaining. I just subscribed. I believe you know my brother Kevin

[@cleggsadventures]

Thanks Much. I know a few Kevin’s. I’m thinking 🤔. What’s his last name?

[@thehillbillyhoarder4996]

Kevin Kinney

[@cleggsadventures]

@@thehillbillyhoarder4996 oh yes, worked in the same factory (Bayer) for a while. I remember I sold him an old recurve bow at the Glendale flea market. It was warped but he did care, he said, “As long as the string don’t pop off.

[@thehillbillyhoarder4996]

@@cleggsadventures yes he’s a good guy. I used to the Glendale flea market now they have it at the Fairgrounds but not near as good he told me about your KZbin channel

[@chuckie5671]

Ahhh, I see you are in West Virginia! So am I, New Cumberland to be exact. I'm not very far from Yellow Creek, which is across the river in Ohio, and is said to be where the Indians came across the Ohio to a small outpost that sold whiskey and supplies. It's where they were murdered by some a**holes, women and men and a half breed child which was spared. The outpost was where the Mountaineer Racetrack is today. Really enjoy your videos. Thanks!

[@cleggsadventures]

Thanks Chuckie. Yeah, I’m down river a couple hours

[@creekfinds]

Great stuff, Thank You!!

[@cleggsadventures]

Much Appreciated

[@cleggsadventures]

Thank you So Much! This will help out for sure.👍❤️

[@Pwrcritter]

Scott, there's a lot of river gravel along the banks north of u. I haven't found much just walking it. Is there a better way?

[@cleggsadventures]

I use a bucket and rake in those areas. Rake, Rinse, Look, Repeat. That’s what I do a lot

[@layt6342]

There's a great big mound where I live and around it we would hunt and my friend found a couple about 5 inches long with the flat tips. Very nice. Guess they were scrapers for hide or something

[@cleggsadventures]

Nice 👍

[@diychad7268]

Yeah most arrowheads or worked Flint were not actually arrowheads to begin with but were used as knives or scrapers but the Indians had a lot of time on their hands and would make them very elaborate, if I had to guess it was probably like some kind of not necessarily competition but social ranking based on who could create the best looking tools, also with a lot of people don't realize is this is just my theory but I would say that every single member of a tribe knew how to nap Flint into tools and was taught to the children at a pretty young age

[@diggingthewest7981]

Gonna get a rake today, just found a beautiful agate point next to a broken older spearpoint. Its a bigger river bar but gotta be worth at least a try.

[@cleggsadventures]

Find a nice one 👍

[@jackdimauro7213]

Love your videos. Can you share where you found the lenses? I would like to try making a pair. Looks like a challenge and a fun project.

[@cleggsadventures]

I found them on ebay, they are two different sizes but the same focal length. Just kept searching through the lenses. You may be able to experiment with different sizes, I would actually like to find some larger ones to get a wider view. Thanks Jack, hope you find a Killer 👍

[@breakdanceexpress]

You have a parts list for your ground scanning goggles?

[@cleggsadventures]

Don’t see any numbers. You’ll need parabolic lenses with around 1-2” focal length. Inside lenses can just be from old binoculars.👍

[@breakdanceexpress]

@@cleggsadventures Right on thanks!

[@sheilakirby5616]

THANK YOU FOR THE LANDSCAPE SHOT !!!

[@robertscott5566]

Basically every place was a native Americans campsite and also that is a lot of work for an old-timer like me I just like to be comfortable and enjoy myself I sure don't want to be raking my own yard more or less a mountainside but very cool video!!!

[@corylefebvre8488]

Maybe the arrowhead with the ground down tip was for small game? So it wouldn't split the animal in two, but instead knock it out or kill it with a massive blunt force blow? Get the most meat possible? That was my thought but I could be way off lol

[@cleggsadventures]

Could be correct, I know of a guy that hunts rabbits without tips on the arrows.👍

Hello Bro Clegg! Norm here from the epicenter of the Tallapoosa, Choccolocco, and Coosa. Every good thing in the way of diggin's featuring cultures about as far back as one would want to look...and I feel kinda cheated. See, I'm knocking on 68 and all I ever knew was that you'd go look in plowed fields along the river for arrowheads. (Which I never did, really.) However, if I had had your techniques...well... I can only imagine at my joy. It's not so different from looking for gold dust. That's already hobby number 57. So happens my uncle was an amateur archeologist who worked on a world class project not a quarter mile from where I grew up. A natural spring intersected the creek in fine flat land. Indian artifacts out the wahzoo have been located here. Growing up, my unc's fascination with such was interesting, but not much more. Then about 10 years ago I fell into the study of the Indian, circa 1540-1830 and amassed a huge library of books of which I have read every one. DeSoto may have had tea in my front yard in 1540. Not a dozen miles from here Andy Jackson dined on acorns in 1813 or so at a place called Ten Islands. History everywhere you look. Darn it bro Clegg.... I wish I would have run across you about 50 years ago. Wasted a lot of time around here when I could have had my eye to ground.

[@cleggsadventures]

Much Appreciated for the comment. Yea, there’s several ways of finding stuff, I’m learning more all the time. 50 years ago, I was only 1

[@OvGraphics]

@@cleggsadventures Haw! Even at the age of 1 you knew a lot more about finding pointy rocks than I did. God bless. Glad we found your stuff!!! Your fans, Norm and Vicky way down in Alabam

What you're lookin for ? Gold !!! You findin anything ? Not any big ones !! Now I know you're talkin to yourself and no worries because I do too !!! Thanks for the tips I'll apply them on my next hunt 2morrow morning !!

Much Appreciated 👍

[@LostLeftyLimb]

Clegg if you ever want to find some artifacts I know a ton of spots here in cleveland. They are absolutely everywhere! Just yesterday I found a hill too with HUNDREDS of spear points, axe heads and other tools.

[@cleggsadventures]

Very Nice!

[@traycoker4690]

Would you think that the point where the tip has been slightly ground dull... Could possibly discourage cracking???

[@cleggsadventures]

I don’t know, it has me puzzled.

You ever run into rocks costeau? You are in the same area, west virginia ohio

[@cleggsadventures]

Actually he’s only a few miles from me. I don’t associate with him. Tried making friends, he basically told me to get lost. If you know his history on here, you’d understand. He’ll attack anyone that’s doing better than him. He’s got a bad reputation on KZbin. Ask any of the older arrowhead channels on here, you’ll hear the same.

[@danmaxwell147]

You know how many hours I've spent at that exact spot in middle island looking for arrowheads and never found one at least I know there's some there now lol great video

[@cleggsadventures]

Thanks Dan. I’ve found a few there but always broken. My friends 8 year old daughter found a killer right there last month! Beginners luck.👍
