My grandsons 7/9 love your channel. Especially the video with the spirit Indian/Native American after you. They cackled on that one...had to replay it several times for them. Just got started looking for arrowheads/artifacts. Took them yesterday after a 4 foot swell from a 3 inch rain had subsided to about 14 inches depth. All we found on the dry sand/gravel bar were "Indian Beads" (fossils) but everything is a treasure to them...and it gets them into the woods. Going back in a day or two after the flow drops another foot so I/we can really look at the rock bars. Yesterday revealed a ton of freshly rolled, clean rock in the bottom of the creek that - before the rain - was all mossy and hard to discern. Going to try and focus adjacent to flat ground BUT with move to a section directly adjacent to both the flat on one side and the steep / pointed ridges that overlook the creek and have eroded over hundreds of years...right onto the creek bed...on the opposite side. I picture them camping on those ridges, too, as they empty out onto flat ground. Thanks! Rory

That was very interesting! You have a good eye for finding that stuff! One additional factor that's going on here is that surface runoff is vastly greater in post-settlement times than it was in pre-settlement times. That's because the runoff from tilled fields and even from cleared forests is enormously greater than it was when those places were still in their natural states. Typical rivers and creeks in post-settlement times have cut much deeper into their beds than had been the case in the distant past, and there is also far greater bank erosion going on. That's the result of high-flow events occurring far more frequently and in greater volume than was typical in pre-settlement times. My previous career involved examining soils within excavations for construction in all sorts of locations, and when excavations are done within floodplains and even just the bottoms of broad, gently-sloped valleys, there's usually clear evidence of the changes in erosion and/or deposition that have taken place in post-settlement times as compared to what was happening earlier. Erosion of the banks and bottoms of creek channels always took place, and it followed the same "rules" as what we see today, but the volume of soil that is being moved by streams is many times greater in modern times than it ever was in the distant past.

as an old bow hunter my take on creek arrowheads is that hunters would travel the creek bottoms to get a shot at browsing deer up on the flats and anywhere up to a hundred yards from said creek would be where arrows would land if the deer was missed and also a woulded deer if it got away would head for water in its injured condition and possibly die in the creek. It would also be a good place to process a successfull kill.

You explained something I wanted to know. I have a Civil War battle site near my home it was on a river. A friend of mine was boating down the river when he rounded the bend where the battle took place at the original bridge. He found five Minnie balls on a small shelf of rock where the water had washed away the soil allowing the bullets to fall on the shelf waiting for him to come along.

Our farm was over one hundred years old and at one time was monstrous but the sold most of it before my parents bought it The farm used to be around a river that went into a lake and was a summer camp for whatever tribe was living there. They had boxes of old arrowheads and a bunch of semi-good ones were in frames. Generally the bad ones would be the ones that would be laying around. I'm sure if anyone had done any digging they would have found a lot more stuff but the only digging we did was plowing the only field left which was only twenty acres. The rest of the old farm was planted Christmas Trees owned by a family a few miles down the road. Those trees gotta be all gone by now it's been thirty years since we lived there and none of the grandkids were field workers.

Still have lots of what we found around.Sometimes I would find the occasional arrowhead in pristine condition like they were just made.My father would make them in his shop and drop them in the dirt and say lets look over here for some. Just figured this out after he passed away.Guess he thought it was better if we actually found some every time we went out.

I live in Pennsylvania near Tioga point and Spanish hill . The confluences in our area seem to be great places to find Artifacts . There is a confluence of Sugar creek and a no-named run in East Troy that gave up hundreds of artifacts through the years . The surrounding fields are included in this . A Man that lived there for 80+ years had a large collection . After the Agnes flood of 1972 , he found A LOT . Hammers , arrowheads , fish net sinks and more of the usual . Spanish hill has a very unique story , the local natives claimed the Spanish arrived before Columbus and strangely , a Spanish cross was found in Athens ( neat Spanish hill) while excavating for a basement .

Very interesting video. As to your idea that ancient people must have found in the stream gravel the artifacts of still more ancient people, that may not have been as common as you suppose. As you say, most of the artifacts wind up in the gravel from the eroding of the banks, but I believe that type of erosion would not have been as common in the old days. This type of erosion has likely been greatly sped up by changing land-use patterns, specifically logging the forests and converting land to agricultural use, which in turn changes run-off patterns, especially after plowing, or where there are non-absorbent surfaces like road, roofs, and parking lots.

Emmm, 9,000 year old arrowheads - "9,000 yeas old" he says!!! When the earth and all of "creation" is all approximately 6,000 years old. Those arrow heads are 3,000 years older than the earth - emm,... and that's all I got to say about that.

I wish they had a true expert, old folk, guide to hunting arrowheads & pottery. My great aunt has a dammed spring fed valley pond that the emergency spillway washed out twice & behind the dam another creek runs parallel with it. Where the intersect I have found caboodles of flint & pottery pieces as well as afew whole arrowheads. She told me that the Indians use to live right around that around which by what I have found confirms that. She even says that at our locally well known “5 point” a 5 way stop intersection that there was an Indian trading post where Andrew Jackson came & met with tribe leaders. 5 point is right there close to where the spring starts. Where the emergency spillway washout in the cliff side we found what looks to be a horse’s skeleton. As far as she knows though none of our previous 2 generations ever own horses just cows. So you now show old they are & if they might possibly be there from the Indians. Everytime I go down there I find abunch of finds, being flint nappings galore, random or broken arrowhead pieces, one or 2 intact arrowheads or fragments of pottery. You will even have spots where you’ll find charcoal from where wood was once burnt. I know there had to be a small camp there on my aunts land. The crazy part is I have found some of these pieces almost right at ground level where there’s spots where the grass is dead. I had heard that the common white flint glows in uv/black light but that doesn’t look to be true. There is so much down there to try to shift through I wish I had someone who enjoyed just the adventure of looking & exploring as I do. Sadly the closest thing I have to friends are ladies that are in their 70’s to mid 80’s even though I’m mid 30. Life has been rough & damaging to my soul.

I found arrowhead in a field along the Ohio a river in WV. I was squirrel hunting a creek bed and stopped near a groundhog mound and found a point in the mound. I also have a potential fossil I found in southern WV, if anyone knows where I can have it verified as to what it may be.
