This Stick Finds Arrowheads!

[@Spearhead-lz1oq]

I showed your video in class (6th grade) as we studied artifacts and the Native Americans. The one with the snow cone syrup! Then I bought the Overstreet Guide to Arrowheads. I am going to start local searching and am detailing the process for the kids. Goal is for me to find something before the end of the school year. Located in eastern WV and I can feel those points all around here.

I recently discovered this channel and realized that I have seriously messed up. My late father in law was a talented and well known flint knapper. He was also an avid student of archaic tools and participated by invitation to participate in Corp of Engineers archaeological digs of ancient campsites near impoundments. I wish I had spent more time listening to him and shared more in his enthusiasm over finding another piece of "worked" high ridge or Cobden flint, chert flakes or his excitement exclaiming "now this was someones favorite pecking stone". He was disappointed when no-till farming became the norm and he couldn't go out and walk the freshly worked up fields in the hilly creek bottoms after a hard rain.It wasn't uncommon for a disc blade to hit a ax head or a point to embed itself in a tractor tire. KZbin was before his time but I'm positive he would have really enjoyed this channel.

[@Davidrcobb]

I believe its a combination of the stick creating a boundary and it softens the mud around the stick which creates a pocket for heavier objects to get stuck in. Very similar panning for gold. A good test would be to also dig out a hole in front of the stick, let it fill with soft mud. Maybe even try it with multiple sticks together.

[@cleggsadventures]

You could be correct on that

I'm a new Sub! My entire life, i've wanted to "find" an arrowhead but never knew anything about where to look, etc so life went on. BUT, i have a mere 5.5 acres in South AL, nowhere near any creek or water and the other day we had a heavy rain, i was out front looking for my little chipmunks to give them a treat and as i walked by a 150 yr old plus, pecan tree, my eye caught the shape of one laying at the base. I picked up this "point" and assumed it was just an arrow head that had a broken off bottom part but by watching you, i believe it's the throwing kind of point. I don't recognize the stone it's made out of...it's not flint. I was so excited to find this piece, I want to go looking for more but in South AL, i wouldn't dare go near any water edge...we have some big gators all over!

[@michaelmattingly9300]

I do enjoy Clegg’s adventures. I once lived in Huntington, WV near your area. Why do stones collect around the stick? The river acts like a swirling prospectors pan. The heavy objects always go down to the bottom. The wave actions which is noticeable in the video is constantly washing the sand and earth down river. The stick changes the wave pattern creating a focal point. Everything above the clay layer is active when under water. Also exerting a smaller force is the spin of the earth, that is why the stones lay in a circle around the stick. This last sentence is of course my opinion and speculation. However, the first part is probably correct.

[@cleggsadventures]

It’s the water level and waves. They just move the stuff around until it snags an obstacle. Large rocks and tires do the same.

[@SecretIdaho]

I grew up in Southern Idaho and my Summer Job in my early years was spent in Northern Nevada. We would go on camping trips and raft trips along the little Salmon river. Historically Salmon used to swim this river. The Paiute Indians Blackfeet. One trip we found an encampment and the fire pits. Around these area were hundreds of obsidian flakes and we found many arrow heads and spear points. In the 70s mind you the indigenous people were there just 100 years and less. On the ranch we knew of several Burial sights that are now protected sights. But my friend who originally discovered mmany of these remote sights. Found a Jasper Eagle that the medicine man wore on there neck. As ell as many other artifacts.He now has a museum near the Idaho Nevada boarder on Highway 93. South of holster Idaho. In Idaho now if you find an artifact you are required by law to take a gps coordinates and notify UofIdaho. But many of these locations even today are in so remote areas. I feel like they should be picked up and preserved wheather in private collections or given or sold in museum. I found an arrow shaft shot into a several hundred year old tree. We cut it out of the tree. And the arrow head and the tendons still conecceted to the arrow shaft. It was dated to be 300 to 500 years old, pretty cool. I gave it to the herrett.csi.edu. here is the address to partify.io/jerry-lee-youngs-idaho-heritage-museum

I just put out some sticks in my local river, right along cut banks of some flat fields that have been known to have artifacts. I tried to follow all the advice as you suggested. Hope to go check in a couple weeks! I do have two questions though. 1) Have you tried this on other rivers than the Ohio? I wonder if there's anything special about it or not. This river had similar sand/silt/mud as I see in the video, but just wondering if there's anything unique to it other than that? 2) Why do you recommend waiting two weeks? Does rainfall and river height factor into time? Thanks for all the help!

[@wowbogazzled1369]

And than when state-sponsored archaeologists find something they lock it away in a vault so no one can see it. That or finds get “repatriated” aka reburied even tho most tribes were established fairly recently and likely have zero connection to even earlier artifacts (the Cherokee nation wasn’t even a thing until 1790…)

[@wowbogazzled1369]

And another example would be the Caddo people, despite being able to directly trace their lineage to the Mississippian era they (Caddo government) see itself starting in 1690 as they were more throughly documented by the Spanish at this time.

[@robertporch8895]

the one major flaw in your theory on the sticks collecting artifacts is that you do not check the ground first. In other words, you don't know that they weren't already there. I suspect they were because many times you just take a scoop or shovel and find them. Also I believe the sticks theory would be a lot more viable if there were two or mores sticks side by side. That way they could function like a snow fence (called sand fences at the beach). I do like your videos. I don't see myself as an avid arrowhead collector but I do know now how to go about it. Thanks

[@cleggsadventures]

The sticks don’t act as a screen, more of a snag. When digging the sticks out, the stone is concentrated around the stick. The farther I get from the stick, the stone gets thin to none. If that much stone was there initially, I wouldn’t be able to push the stick in.

Not really worried how it works, just that it works.👍

Hi Clegg. First, congratulations on your educational work in North American history. Do you think your techniques will be successful in finding these points in rivers in South America?

From a fellow artifact collector i believe your theory is correct. I believe the gravel comes from 3/4 of the directions and builds up around the stick and the artifacts do the same and get caughtin the gravel. I say 3/4 of the sides basically from above towards the bank coming down, from river towards the bank from waves and also from up river going down river.

[@learjet45]

Ever try putting 4_6 sticks adjacent to each other parallel to the shore? Might make a batter trap, dunno.

[@cleggsadventures]

Haven’t tried them that close yet

[@joquartobeans398]

What do you do with all the arrowheads you find?

[@cleggsadventures]

I put them here Three Years of CLEGG’S ADVENTURES kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKCsf2SIacyAbtE

[@Gaining_Elevation]

This guy blows my mind with how many points he finds. I swear he is putting the points in the sifter lol. Just kidding, thanks for all the videos.

[@cleggsadventures]

Of course I’m putting points in the sifter. I’m also putting sand, stone and mud in there too. But, I only keep the artifacts.👍✌️

[@WalkandWander]

Hey i fr think u missed one on the last arrow u found look to like diagonal to the left one a little down ish that red rock looks like one to me

[@WalkandWander]

Second to last sifter full^^^not the last one

[@cleggsadventures]

Not sure, if so, it gone now

[@myradioon]

Have you tried digging where the sticks aren't to see if you get the same amount of stones and debris? You may just be digging in a good place.

[@cleggsadventures]

Yes, it’s very thin to none.

[@ReturnoftheCollector]

Maybe one day I can get as lucky as you with the sticks. 😂. I need to find a better place to dig I guess

[@cleggsadventures]

Do you do much sifting?

[@johnwatson6632]

Have u ever checked out any of the creeks that run into the river

[@cleggsadventures]

I have. Found some things, but creeks around here are tough looking. Lots of sandstone.

[@johnwatson6632]

Great content 😂

What part of the Ohio River are you on? Is this close to Pomeroy?

[@cleggsadventures]

Not sure where that is

[@ellenhorcher2890]

Very cool!!

[@cleggsadventures]

Much Appreciated

[@CHAD-RYAN]

Is this an old video, ive seen people doing this already

[@cleggsadventures]

I made one a couple years ago.

[@drewbass5275]

Sifting in the water, is it legal on the Ohio.?

[@cleggsadventures]

@@drewbass5275 Some states it is

[@combatcatfish5408]

I wonder if those points with no base are a fracture base decatur... those types were made that way intentionally.

[@cleggsadventures]

I’m not sure, couple other people said the same thing. Could be, they were made well

[@lelonbond6682]

dig a trench parallel to the shore and see what you find in the water.

[@cleggsadventures]

Tried this. Dug a few ditches in the fall and filmed it. Was gonna dig them out in the spring, but they all filled with leaves. Maybe work better in the summer before the leaves fall

[@purnellrichardson3716]

Your the man will that work for creeks

[@cleggsadventures]

I don’t think so

[@KandyJennings]

Educate us oh wise one, thank you 🎉

[@brianbrowning3701]

Hey Clegg what happened to the good stories in your videos? I been waiting for another one like the one when you traveled back in time and lost your knife then found it in the river all sharpened down. Lol that was my favorite story you gotta top it.

[@cleggsadventures]

I’m thinking on that. The ideas are hard to come up with.

[@brianbrowning3701]

@@cleggsadventures I'm sure it will be a good one you always do a good story.

[@brianbrowning3701]

Hope y'all have a happy thanksgiving from my family to yours here in southeast Missouri.

[@lelonbond6682]

dig between your sticks to test your theoryand see what you get.

[@cleggsadventures]

I’ve done it. There’s stuff there but very thin.

[@bigbensarrowheadchannel2739]

I do this at the lake. But the stick is already there. Dead trees. They hold tons of material. Literally.

[@cleggsadventures]

Yeah, they’re good too. Around here, it’s old tires.

[@mavericklithics4441]

Nice theory with the sticks we have a nice tq point for you contact will snow so we can get a address to send it to you your friends thanks 😊😊

[@cleggsadventures]

Much Appreciated! Hope y’all are finding some good ones

[@poetcomic1]

The Ohio is much better for this sort of thing than the Mississippi. The shoreline makes sense.
