That nutting stone is too cool. I make stone marbles and spin them in silicon carbide cups that remind me of your nutting stone. Thanks for sharing.

Thank You Much!

Scott, easy on the back... the only vertebrae I have that is not totally fused is in my neck! After surgery #8 in feb I’m totally fused, so I have to watch from the sofa!! I want to get out soon, just couldn’t move well yesterday!! Love watching you point hunters!! Keep making saves!!!!!

[@cleggsadventures]

Scott Nock You take it easy as well. The big one will be waiting out there for ya. Thanks for watching 👍

[@personalperson1743]

Its nice to see you hunting/saving history. I have a pretty good sized collection myself been hunting them for almost 50 years now in creeks, rivers, and on my own property. Getting up in years now and almost to the point where its just to hard for me climbing up and down creek banks or walking long distances. If there is anything i could pass on is,...hunt as much as you can if you really love doing it. cause we all get older until one day you just cant physically do it, your mind will say you can but the body cant get you there. Hope and wish you find many more interesting things. If you were closer i'd show you what i have found through the years. Good Luck.

[@cleggsadventures]

Sounds like you’ve done a lot of looking. I’ll hunt as long as I can👍

I do love the Amos points! Nice find of it and the Lancet, Scott, and that nutter was just crazy nice! Give Duke an ear rub from me!😊

[@cleggsadventures]

Cynthia Swearingen Thank you. The last two nutting stones I found were really nice ones, I really liked the one with the small mortar in the top. Yes, Duke loves those ear rubs. He’s a little slower these days (almost 9 years old) but he sure was a handful when he was little.👍❤️

You are one talented man, Mr. Clegg! I always enjoy your video’s. Just watched the Alaskan gold video and although you found about approximately $300.00 of fine gold, you and your wife seemed to have had a such a great time! It was nice to meet your wife as well. Just catching up on some older videos I missed. ☺️

Congrats Scott! Sick point and that nutter is a killer. I found a nice Amos today along with a cuff link and an old revolver. Might be a toy though really rusted and I can’t tell.

[@cleggsadventures]

Ohio River Rock Hunter thank you. I found another Amos today, maybe 2 but the second one had no base, so hard to tell, and the first one was really sharpened down. I would love to find a gun, had to be exciting. Thanks for supporting my channel. Working on the video now.👍

[@paulflora1996]

I'm just going through some of your older videos and found this. I'm glad I did. I'm shocked no one else has said anything about that big nothing stone with the indent in the top I think it looks like a skull, the shape of a face I mean look at it you got the eyes the nose the mouth and the intention of top is the forehead. And as you was back at the camera from it and even looked more like it. But I always have had a big imagination. I guess me and Rocky could be good friends in that category. Keep up the good work. You're looking for theories organic stones, I thought from the beginning that they might be a way to make paint, they mix up their paint in there. Or like that other feller said they couldn't make it marbles we don't know what them people did they could have had slingshots. Have you ever found anything that would be conducive to a slingshot?

[@cleggsadventures]

@@paulflora1996 Never found anything like that before.

[@ordinaryeverydayguy2593]

I didn't know you were a runner. I was a marathoner for many years.

[@cleggsadventures]

Ordinary everyday guy I race bikes for years, then took up running in 2003. I haven’t run in a year now and gained 30 lbs. it’s killing me! I’m now on a diet and will start running again as soon as my weight drops a bit. I’ve only run 1 marathon and it was not good. Didn’t drink enough early on and dehydrated myself. Ended up finishing in 3:56. I do better at half’s. I ran 1:22:08 a few years ago. And a 17:29 5k. I wasn’t the fastest but I did ok. I would like to try longer races but it seems I sweat so bad nowadays if it’s over 70 degrees out, that I can’t get enough water in me fast enough. Thank you for watching.

[@EmbraceTheJourney]

nice finds, Scott. It's a shame how people have trashed the river. Be careful around those syringes.

[@cleggsadventures]

Townsend Walton Thank you so much!👍 yea, ya gotta be careful around that stuff. I never touch it, one stick could mess a person up.

[@russellcrawford4809]

I'm wondering if the holes in the Nutting stones was possibly used to grind and shape antler billets that would then be used on spawls and bifaces in flint knapping..? Those larger holes would be about the diameter of elk antler basses and the smaller ones of whitetail deer

[@cleggsadventures]

I share that similar theory in this video. ANCIENT HUMAN or ANIMAL kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWLEo6COhq6grZo

[@cleggsadventures]

Never have

[@georgedouglas9342]

Hello again Sir. Recently subscribed and going through some of your older vids looking for one with a so called "nutting stone". Well, for once I have to mostly disagree with that theory. I do agree that they are a man made artifact. A lesser known theory of those is that they were used to dress the striking end of an antler commonly known for flint napping. Most stones of that type are of sandstone, hence, sandpaper, if you will. That material breaks down rapidly and wouldn't be favorable on the teeth if used for food processing. Also usually on larger stones not easily carried around, but better to stay put while dressing an antler. I've seen examples with multiple dimples on stones of around 80lbs. An article on this theory can be found in Ohio Archaeologist magazine, vol. 63, No 4, fall 2013 on pg 39-41, written by Scot Stoneking. 1 example pictured is from my personal collection, I have several. I've know and hunted with Scot for decades and this theory seems most plausible. Hope you find this information helpful. Keep up the GREAT work! 👍✌

[@cleggsadventures]

Yes, I also agree with that theory. I only used the term “Nutting Stone” because that’s the most common name that people know them by. “Cup Stones” Pitted Stones” “Anvil Stones”. But I see what you are saying…… that’s why I don’t refer to them , any longer, as nutting stones. Believe it or not, there are folks that think they were for cracking nuts. I always tell them, “ there’s no way someone is going through all the trouble of making those holes to crack a nut. I give my best theory in this video. It makes the most sense.

[@georgedouglas9342]

@@cleggsadventures Perfect! Great job of explaining the "nutting stones" potential use. 👍 That little bone is cool, I've found a few exactly like it and believe it could be a deer toe bone. First thing I did was hold it up to my finger like you did lol. The last stone may have been used for basal grinding. I have a killer hematite pc. very similar. Thanks for the link buddy. Your vids, theories, and explanations are 2nd to none! 👍👍👍

[@paulhaig4628]

I think all the holes in that stone were for different colors of paint.

That’s a good theory, maybe different shades. 👍 Thanks Paul

some of the larger nut stones were used to grind seeds on the other side .flip it over and you had a different tool.

[@lelonbond6682]

i found them like that i am 78 years old and have hunted artifacts for 60 years.@@cleggsadventures

[@oldman8350]

I"'m new to artifact hunting. Why do you call the holes in stones "nuttey stones or nuttey holes"? I have heard you say you don't know what they were used for so why "nutty holes or stones"? I enjoy your videos unfortunately I don't live near the Ohio River or any river or I would try hunting. Keep going.

[@cleggsadventures]

Some people believe the holes were used to crack nuts in, which I feel is a very unlikely conclusion. They are known by several names : Nutting Stone, Cup Stone, Pitted Stone, Anvil Stone…… they have an unknown use. You can search these terms and read about them. I plan on making a video on them very soon to go over what they may have been. Hope to see you there.

I quit bringing home Nutting stones when I learned what came out of those holes. Indians didn't do it, some kind of iron pops out of those. Like a rusted metal ball. My backyard showed me that. Then over time it gets worn smooth. Makes it look like what you found.

[@cleggsadventures]

Not around here. If you watch my last video, you’ll see they are not natural.

What makes your rocks different from here? Nothing! If and when I start my own channel, I might just go and prove it. There's nothing on those rocks that says native did it.

​​@@thingsinkansas4387 are you actually that blissfully unaware bud......? You arent gonna prove anything but your ignorance of such a common artifact as a nutting stone. If you dont understand what they are or why they arent natural, not sure how useful any input you have can be......
