Bad info I'm in oregon we find arrowheads we have more obsidian then any other state

Hard to find stone points in upper michgian but copper ones you can

I’ve made some cool things out of river clay

Did you collect the jade your self

Naans cute af

Great job looks good 👍

Ever since we moved to NE Michigan (lower peninsula) 2 years ago, I've been gathering 'heart-shaped rocks' for the wife from trails, rivers, and beaches. From matchbox size to doorstop size, they're everywhere! Just saw on another vid that they're actually artifacts/tools (the notch at the top of the heart is the work of a human.) She has a great collection of them, and gets new ones often 👍

They are in every single state😅

Excellent presentation of this material. Thank you

Complete nonsense. Europeans did nothing of the sort to corn. Its modern form was well established thousands of years earlier. If you went back to precontact america you'd recognize it just fine and it wouldn't taste any different

This is EXACTLY what i was looking for! i love hearing other peoples opinions on stuff like this in such a format. Thanks

The majority of California used to be a lush marsh/grassland. With about the most fertile soil ever. Lots of game to be hunted. Tons of obsidian to be quarried in the sierras, and Monterey chert at the coast. I’ve got a friend with probably close to a hundred stone points from the California north coast around the rivers and creeks. There is plenty there if you know when and where to look. But you’re not finding piles of hundreds pouring out of an eroded river bank.

Kentucky has so many they often get thrown into House foundation

So I’m in Wisconsin on the shore of Lake Michigan. Our entire region and lake was formed by massive glaciers. Does that mean I should forget about finding any real chert around here?

Can anyone name a point that is obsidian, two plus inches, thin and pointed at both ends found west side of Cascades

Good to know on the looks alikes for black green basalt not being jade or nephrite,however theres a man here on TH-cam that's a jade hunter last time he went up to the cascade mountains and found a kind of jade with these black veined swirl pattern in it,along with it being lighter green not lime green, just a different just more or lighter green in colour also,hopefully his finding was a tyle of jade from the site he located it

Good video!! Made so much sense.

Idk wth yor intro was but I clicked on your videos to look for more rock videos. I seen this 1 in san Antonio there is a park named Eisenhower park. 4 years ago living in my vehicle I wen off a old blocked trail drove I a huge bush so I can make a number 2. Right as u lightly spaded the ground not even 1 inch I found a broken arrow head even as a child in boy scouts I never got my arrow badge bc I couldn't find one. I was that kind that always finished last just like now. I wish I could send u san Antonio flint but I can't pay the shipping. If u have a Facebook page I could show u scraps I toss out u properly can use

I'm no geek like this fellow BUT if u collect rocks & grew up to hobby collect cut chip make stuff out of ROCKx then yo a dweeb. Thank u a trillion thins videos was more then what I wanted to know & a 4 year degree in under 10 minutes. I can't thank u enough. This videos needs more thumbs up. I live in san Antonio nexto sea world. I'm in my mid 40 & taking up my childhood hobby slicing open chert, flint & making spheres cut them half to put on a custom made silver belt buckle. I make what ever I feel want like making. No I don't sake stuff bc I can't compete with temu & no1 buys American hand crafted stuff. I always wanted to know how what u said & having to go to school for long time. Right after high school I had to start working. Thanks

yeah, worth the watch. Thanks. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I’ve found a lot in California. Mainly because any points stick out like a sore thumb compared to the surrounding rock.

Very cool 👍

What were those herbs

Here's y'all a free tip.. No matter what state you're in.. Become an amateur geologist. Find the good quality chert/flint in the area you're looking/hunting for stone tools/artifacts... Find where it outcrops.. limestone outcrops.. You'll find more 'arrowheads'.. KG

I found a red chert arrowhead and it's flakes while herding sheep in central Montana. It's like an indian was fashioning an arrowhead then left it all in a hurry.

I found a absolutely perfect arrowhead in Minnesota.

whens the best time to look for them?

I was born and raised where the kootenai Indians lived along the river. We found all kinds of stuff. Arrowheads, stone grinders and stone bowls. They also stacked rocks in a long curved line. It was really cool as kids playing in the woods where Indians once lived.

I hunt in California I’ve got thousands it’s not red for me . Good luck

From VA near the Potomac. I have jars full of arrowheads. I also have 5 tomahawk heads and a jar full of civil war musket balls. It was all found over many years of gardening a 10 acre property close to the Occoquan river.

So Maryland is tough. ??? No wonder. I never find any

We find arrow heads in colorado also lots of my friends find both spear head and arrow heads

How.does indiana fair in terms of chert and or flint?

I'm getting into rocks, and in central Missouri where I live, chert is everywhere! It's in the creeks and in nodules in limestone. It's interesting that it's uncommon in the PNW. Interesting video!

Makes sense young man

Flint Ridge Ohio, Kanawa county West Virginia, Carter county Kentucky.

I find flat base triangular arrowheads in New Jersey 😢Lenape tribe 😮😮😮

I was in vernal Utah and I didn’t find any 😢😢😢😢

mountain john w’s in chat

PA says dont expect alot, a walk along parts of the Susquehanna says otherwise

North and South Carolina are LOADED with Arrowheads. You can often find the actual place where they sat and made them . We have what's left of 2 leather pouches containing 50+ Arrowheads. Found under a stone where they often sat and made them. Any freshly plowed Field has tons of them. Wait until it rains and you can't muss them.

I know a family that has lived in Northern California for ever on a 1 thousand acre ranch and they have jars and buckets full of points, even when they first moved there in the early 1800s the Native Americans even shot at them.

Thanks so much for this info.. It’s great to hear the actual reasons for my not finding much for stone tools in my area. I live in Vermont and have been looking for years. Maybe found two points in all my hours of looking. One was found by accident in a well used campsite. There were settlements along the larger rivers but even with the activity artifacts are very rare. Most of my finds were in the west and south. Great video!

PA has LOTS of artifacts. been hunting the se part of this state with my bro since we were kids. cigar boxes full! many once great sites have been turned into housing developments.

any idea how to date the age approximately of some arrowheads found in new mexico?

grew up 5 miles from Cahokia mounds site. There were mounds in our neighborhood and all over the St,Louis area. I found many artifacts many on a sandbar on the Mississippi during low water periods. Now I'm in Alabama near the Tennessee R. where my favorite spot is a shell midden. Caution needs to be used as some of these are in a national preserve area so hunting is banned/illegal.

Love your videos. Really informative and helpful. I have been field walking since the 60’s in northern Ohio. I have a small collection of Indian artifacts in all that time maybe 40 pieces. I wish I knew exactly what I have found.

Mountain John, really interesting video. Ironically, I'm originally from Alabama but now live in Washington. And I do have a collection (from Alabama) but I've never even tried looking for points in WA. I subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work and much respect to you from Larry.

I am from NJ and I have a huge collection. I have found alot of ancient artifacts here
