The love of finding and hunting Native American Artifacts in the Tobacco fields growing up led me to wonder how they made their points and tools. Which ultimately led to me learning how to Flintknapp myself. 2yrs into the hobby now but many years of studying.

That’s a great craft!

I can relate. As a kid, I found a handaxe that I mistook to be a tomahawk head that was once tied to a stick until a college professor when I went to Berea corrected me over a decade later. But, even in my ignorance, that handaxe still inspired me to keep looking for more all through my youth.

Throughout the years the Indian tribes also learned how to develop" happy hunting grounds" planting species of plants that would attract certain animals . They also designated certain territories for species of trees of nuts and fruits . They absolutely worked in harmony with natural nature . Many of the Indian tribes believed in a Garden of Eden but perhaps on three different levels. As for the matching resembling megalithic architecture all over the Earth they had some of it here but it has partly been dismantled reincorporated into dams farming walls and even into the white settlers foundations . Driving in certain parts of Louisville, Indiana , and Circleville Ohio region we can still see megalithic architecture that was built before the Indians ,but has purposely been allowed to overgrow with trees and grass so it can't be detected easy , but we can plainly see it with Earth Google and lidar infrared radars

Grew up in Pomeroy Ohio There are quite a few dams between Pittsburgh and Quincy to keep the river at a navigable depth

well said, thanks. Any intrest in a rock face at a primative place that has the name D. Boone on it ?
