@@robertlast3052 YOURE RIGHT I did! That’s in the pinned comment 🫡

Thanks! This point type used almost entirely percussion flaking techniques. I do have an antler pressure flaker or two lying around and I use then often on my more brittle quartz points that require pressure flaking. Thanks for the sub! Got some good stuff coming out soon if youre into selfbows I have a build video coming along with some ancient finds here or there.

@@eastcoastlithics Alright awesome to hear! I myself have been doing "primitive technology" for over 6 years now and i love finding new channels. Looking forward to seeing the selfbows. Best of luck Johan

@@AlJAMIE20 ancient: the quality of being old or past a present time. (Basically really really old)

O okay so that’s ayn·chnt. Cool video though man

😂 yes indeed. Im picturing the flintstone car

Lets hope he does! He likes to learn

@ when youre in pa youre suppose to say crick instead of creek. And yens

@@Dougarrowhead ha! Im not from that far west lol. “Youse guys” down in NC say “tin” instead of 10 I dont wanna hear it 😂🫵🏻

@@eastcoastlithics i have family in pa. They sound a lot more ignorant than the nc hicks that i know.

Ignorant in what respect?

@@marcelduckfeather9859 quartz point all the way out there?! Im not too familiar with the lithics in that region it I would be willing to bet it might be some kind of calcedony or agate. Either way both will fracture with those conchoidal marks on the edges. Look down the cross section and it should have a diamond shape from being worked on both faces. If you have reddit post on r/arrowheads for confirmation. Ill probably see your post!

Glad I could help! There are millions and millions out there. I just found a knife a few minutes ago and that was in a less artifact dense part of my area!

@@eastcoastlithics I live on Cape Cod, we have tons of water here. My neighbor has found a lot of arrowheads, as others around here have. I don't want to ask them where or how, I want to find one myself, for exactly the same reason you do - connection to someone who fabricated a piece of history many years ago. I'll start looking tomorrow.

@@billpholde4816 let me know what you come up with!

@@Wildernessquestoutdoors You have also gained a few thousand subs since I last saw you Knapping live! The algorithm is a hungry monster dude lol

@ hahaha I haven’t even released the southwest and Texas videos yet I’m gonna put a link to you in my videos for my subs that wanna see artifacts

@ heck yeah bro!! Thanks for that 🔥

@@mtman2 you seem to have this down 🤠

@@mtman2 I may haft this one just like this!

​@@eastcoastlithics Use a Shagbark Hickory limb or sapling as the strongest springy-ist wood = is why its best for axe & the shorter striking tool handles (hammer's mauls etc); White Ash for longer tool for being stiffer for shovel & rake handles...!

@@mtman2 Very interesting! I never knew there were specific woods for tool handle lengths. I thought it was all hickory or ash interchangeably. Thanks for this knowledge!

​@@eastcoastlithicsHickory - Shagbarks the tuffest of the hickory's & will take constant pounding when Ash will splinter; Tho Hickory's not as stiff as Ash for long handles & will bend to much; Shagbark's also top choice for making bows & again Ash makes great arrows being stiffer...!

@@joannparker1977 glad you like it! Im sure ill have some crazy content in the coming months!!

@@chadcardosa9063 just waiting on him to pull a good one 😂

@@Unk13Dave Keeps them mosquitoes away haha. I was gettin lit up by em for the few days prior.

@@eastcoastlithics oh yeah anything to keep them away. I'm not their preferred diet but my friends and children often are. What flavor incense you find best?

@ This was unscented. Regular old sawdust and glue on a stick

@@Jack-ex8dg Thanks! Check out my “how to find arrowheads” video if you’d like some tips

@@bentleyrevis6038 aw man! There has to be a triangle or knife around there somewhere

@@trust-n0one1001 good gor hunting!

@@Serbian_Tactical 15 month dried Hickory

Happy to have inspired you! SW pa is a great spot to find points. Youll get a ton more very high quality cherts out that way compared to SE or Central PA in general. Let me know what you find bro 💪🏻

we just had a 700 acre farm disc his cut corn and also just had a good rain today. I plan on going out and poking around in a few days. I actually found my most recent one while looking for my arrow that I shot a deer with in the corn field. I’m not sure how old or what type tho. Still gotta learn all that.

@@TheWildWayPa got it! I removed your replies for you as well

@@a1971-d6d I apreciate the time you took to bring me to Christ. However, I have already found the Lord. I believe the Bible is up to one’s interpretation of God’s word. Have a good one!

I will be referencing this comment in my analysis video 😂

Thank you!

@@eastcoastlithics SouthCentral Pa here. The drought is real. No till farming screwed everyone when it comes to arrowheads, lol!

@@eastcoastlithics I grew up where the Queen Aliquippa died. If you’ve never heard of her, George Croghan, or Capt Jack Armstrong, you should check it out. There’s a lot of history around Fort Shirley.

@ thanks for the info, sounds interesting 👍🏻

@@firechicken455adventures thanks for the watch!

@@greggehret5922 Based in PA but I go all over. Thanks for the watch and sub!

@@dr.strangelove7739 No problem sir! Hope you find some good stuff 💪🏻

@@normaferro8054 nice seeing ya norma!

Thanks homie 🔥

@@TurningRight1776 Some are utilized tools and some really are just waste flakes.

@@meandmyshadow6269 lemme go check that vid out again. I believe I remember the point you’re talking about. Be back in a jiffy 😂 Hopefully Philly can pull a smoker next time we’re out.

@@eastcoastlithics It's in my video "Immediate Smoker!" and starts near the end at about the 11 minute mark. Yours looks a little more like a fluting nipple than mine but the similarities are definitely there

@ ha, I went waaaay too far back to find it. I do remember that point vividly now! I think it’s entirely likely that is a broken fluting nipple from what I saw when you zoomed in on the video. Considering the tip is broken could they have messed up trying to flute it once before? The tips would often break in the fluting process. The flaking looks on par for paleo also. Definitelyone to take to your buddy to maybe discuss in another artifact yap video.

@@eastcoastlithics Thanks for taking time to look at it and give me your feedback, sir! I think it absolutely does need to be seen by my friends and discussed in an Artifact Yap video!

@meandmyshadow6269 Lookin forward to it bro 👍🏻

@@huckfin1100 Christ is king! But carbon dating says otherwise about the Earth’s age. God operates on a different time frame than us mortals experience. Not everything in the Bible should be taken literally in this instance.

@@eastcoastlithicsthe biblical timeline is true. Carbon dating isn't all that accurate and reliable the further we go back. The flood changed the ratio of c14 to c12. God's word is the truth. Take a look into how they actually carbon date specimens and how other dating methods work, the assumptions that must be made, the dates they've gotten wrong. The evolution timeline is easy to pick apart and that's where I'd begin if I were to try to open my mind to the possibility that the earth's timeline is thousands of years rather than millions. Science proves God's hand and fingerprints are on everything. I don't want to change your mind because I said so, I want you to just keep it open to other possibilities. You have an awesome channel and I enjoy watching your new finds!

No disrespect but the Bible don’t say that my brother. God bless. Drop the verse if I’m dead wrong

Check that blue out with a magnet. Some blue, quartz or flint, will be "hot", with a metal detector... 🤔

@ interesting! Ill give it a shot.

Thanks bro 🫡

@@davidperry5631 thanks for the info sir! I had trouble deciphering the two just based on color

@@greatbasinman If he pulls a 6 inch Thebes E Notch I wouldn’t even be mad. The kid deserves it!

@@toddincabo I dont understand how people don’t understand what these pointy rocks are. I could write a poem about them and Im not a poet! Thats how I feel about the connection to that ancient person.

@@eastcoastlithics I hear ya'. I have some scrapers that I'm more fond of than points.

@@toddincabo I also apreciate a nice scraper just as much as anything

@@RedEyedPatriot I gotta try it out sometime.

@eastcoastlithics you should man. Gives you an appreciation for how they were made.

@@RedEyedPatriot I think a lot of it is heat treated- were you referring to the blue quartz or the coshocton flint? Because I have knapped the coshocton.

As long as hes not on an ipad like his friends and having a good time with me I have fun too. Just making memories and collecting history 🇺🇸

@eastcoastlithics Dang right, bro ✌️
