I agree with you that these items are exactly as you've said-precious pieces of history but there's a great deal to be envious of-you're having the thrill of finding them-being the first human to see and touch these beautiful objects in thousands of years. As I noted, I've collected artifacts for over 60 years and everything I've found is framed and is on my wall. Since my children and grand children really don't seem to have an interest in them, I'll find a reputable museum to donate them to. I consider my collecting as salvaging native works of art from being destroyed, as most of them would have been by now since roads have been built where much of it came from and

I watch your videos all the time, enjoy them so much. I have listened to my dad and his brothers talk about the things they once found everywhere on their farm and played with them until they eventually had no idea what they done with artifacts that would have made your jaws drop! Makes me sort of sick to my stomach!!! Tenn was Cherokee hunting grounds, and a lot of camping sits where we live. But the things he described was way older than Cherokee relics. He spoke and described large spear like points, several inches long, chiseled out of rock. I remember drawing once when I was in high school what he described to me along with other relics they played with. All is still there…. somewhere, if they didn’t destroy them!! I had bags of arrow heads as a young girl. When my dad plowed the fields in the spring, I would follow the tractor and pick up the arrow heads I would find. Wish I still had them!!! No one I have ever been around has ever had an interest in anything like this. So Thankyou and others that I get to go along with you, in spirit, on your adventures!!!! Hey, do you ever lose your finds just throwing them on the banks like you do??? 🤔😁😁😁 God bless and bless you with many more great finds!!! ( But don’t lose them!!!)

It's amazing that sometimes when you find a knife blade or spear or arrow point, how, after thousands of years, they can still cut the beejeebers out of you! When I built my house in the forest, near a creek, when we first had the underbrush on our acreage cleared with a bulldozer, I could sometimes find 5 - 10 artifacts for every hour I searched. Eventually, they became harder and harder to find. And natural caches in creeks are an awesome place to find stuff! To think the last person to touch such an item was an ancient Indian - well, it still gives me a huge chill!

That could make it easier to scrape deeper into the mud and find whatever may be waiting for The Chigg to release from their imprisonment. You are always coming up with different tools and gadgets to enhance your explorations, perhaps this will help too.

Wow chigg, you really found an awesome native site/camp. And an old one. Some of those points looked to be archaic in nature. 5-10,000 thousand years old. There could have been an Indian camp there at one time as well. I did see some hematite rocks in your video. That were red in color. An they looked to be flat on the sides from where the would rub them down (facets) to a powder to make there face paint or dyes /colors for what ever they were putting it on or making something colorful. Congrats on all your finds so far. An that's just the beginning. I've came across sites like this before. Your going to find lots of artifacts/pottery. Especially when you start getting down in the clay/dirt layers in the water. A shovel an a sifter an then its game on. I just take my shovel an start going down about 2-3 inches kind of like skimming the layers of clay/dirt/sedament in the water. At about a foot from the bank, in the water, working back towards the bank. I'm sure you probably already know this. Just throwing it out there. I find lots of artifacts/points with this technique. Once again congrats on your finds, can't wait to see what all you find when you go back. So far the points you have found are amazing. Awesome video.Good luck on your next hunt. As always safe and happy hunting/ digging/sifting. 😁👍👍

A tip for sandy banks. A gas powered leaf blower. Blow the sand away to find stuff. Take a garden rake and gently drag it across the sand to help free things up then blow over it. Also, being on a river you should slow down on your sifting and look at larger stones closer. They could be plummets or other things. There is also a possibility to find bone fish hooks but you can miss that stuff sorting through so quick.

I've been collecting Native artifacts most of my 73 years and must say I'm very envious of the honey hole you've found. Some of those points appear to be paleo & possibly over 10,000 years old. If you haven't already done so, I might suggest you acquire a copy of the Overstreet Guide to Indian Arrowhead Identification book. It'll help you ID what you've found. That book will also give you an idea of what the monetary value is of what you're finding & with that in mind, I might also suggest (as others have) that you remove the larger rocks from your sifter before you shake it. The first time you break one of those extremely rare, beautiful paleo points rolling it around with a bunch of big rocks and changing the value of it from a few thousand dollars to a few hundred, you're going to cry alligator tears (so will the rest of us if you video it). They are extremely fragile. Thanks for sharing-the video causes me to salivate all over my keyboard though. You're a lucky guy!

Don't be envious. There's nothing to be envious of. These are precious pieces of history of a people no longer here, not some treasure for some greedy person to exploit. They're sacred. They're cool to find and collect, but anyone trying to profit from finding artifacts is the lowest form of life on this planet. Putting a price tag on them is extremely wrong. I have had offers for my collection but I sourly refused every offer because I know it wouldn't be right. They don't belong in the hands of greedy collectors who can't appreciate the historical value of my finds.

That was my first thought, "you're gonna BREAK them!" I'm so jealous.

@@MEAT_CANNON You are absolutely right, but on the other hand maybe realizing the monetary value first the artifact would be better cared for and may peak an interest to learn more. Which just may lead that person to feel as you do. But having not known the value they would be more careless and ignorant of the true value of the artifact. I commend you on your viewpoint unfortunately not all think this way. The poster who you replied too had an excellent suggestion also. Not only does Overstreet have monetary values but most importantly information about age, location, and time period and physical characteristics that are important on the age. Much can be learned. I just wanted to point out that side. Happy hunting!

Yeah i can't stand watching this dude banging killer old points around and just tossing them in a pile, I'd spend days slowly picking through that area careful not to break anything. Most good artifact spots in my area get trampled by hundreds of meth heads who pick up every flake thinking they've found an arrowhead, those of us who have hunted for decades cant even get out and find anything more than footprints these days.
