Hey everyone, my name is shawn. welcome to my channel! This channel will be all about my hobbys. this channel will primarily focus on native american artifacts but i also plan to share metal detecting and rockhounding. Every day i am learning more and more about my hobbys. I hope you'll come along with me on this adventure and maybe even learn something anlong the way.
I found a 1200 Y/O Arrowhead. Arrowhead hunting in Upstate NY 2024
ON 6-9-24 I decided to go out and hit a field I know there are arrowheads in but haven't had any luck before. I walked for about two hours, and I found a few native American tools and one arrowhead. it was a pretty crappy morning, so I didn't stay long. I ended up hitting a different field once the rain stopped and I found a ton of Arrowheads but that's next week's video. so, stay tuned! I'd love to hear from you guys in the comments were are you from?

This site produces so many anti-American tools and arrowheads it is an incredible location. I can't wait to get back out in it next year. filmed 6-8...

Walking in this corner of this field and finding all the broken Arrowheads, I couldn't Help but wonder why there were so many. Was this An Ancient target practice area? probably not lol. It was more likely a kill site. A kill site was a place where native slaughtered and butchered animals for food. The Arrowhead tips could have been in the meat or lodged in the bone and then discarded. The tool...

The crystals we were pulling out of here were unbelievable. mining for them was so much easier than mingling for herks. At this location you are searching for pockets/veins full of clay and that's what hold the crystals. #upstatenewyork #crystals #gems #rockhounding #quartz #quartzcrystal

I grew up in Victor NY. In the late 60's or so when they plowed up about 40 acres behind my house with earth movers for housing. I was picking up arrowheads off the ground daily during all that. I had a box of them. I thought I was rich and tried selling them to the Valentown museum across the street form where Eastview Mall is now. The guy that ran the museums name was Sheldon Fisher. He smiled at my arrowheads and gave me a free tour and some hard candy from the big glass jars. I was 7 or 8 years old I think. I can't remember if he took the box from me or not but I stopped looking for them when I found out they weren't worth millions. :)
That's a great storey. I'm sure you have some absolute smokers in there. I'd love to see some pictures of them if they ever turn up. Everything i find is pricless to me i dont think id ever sell them. I hope you'll check my channel out again I'll have a pretty good video out this Saturday.
Nice to see another upstate channel , we may not have the prettiest stuff but there's still some really nice artifacts up here in NY.
Yea this weeks video doesn't have the best but next week I find a ton of nice stuff I split this day up in to 2 videos stop back next week if you want to see. We're about in Upstate are you
@@19SAA88 I moved from Phelps ( Ontario County) about five yrs ago , to right on the edge Seneca and Ontario Counties close to the head of Seneca Lake. I'll keep an eye out for that vid for sure !
Cool saves, man 😎👊!!⛏️⛏️
Thanks dude next weeks videos will be much better!
Idid most of my hunting in N.Y. N.J. and Pa.Idont get around much anymore due to my health here in Florida. So I watch a lot of videos. Peace
Sorry to here that man I hope things start looking up for you! Stop back next week I'll have a much better video
Nice hunt and umbrella
Thanks lol stop back next week I'll have a much better video. I got the umbrella on Amazon
All those tips, there have to be more bases and a few whole ones.
I'm sure. I've just got to wait till next year to find them. Corns to tall now. And once harvested, they leave the stalks on the ground so you cant look till there tilled in
Awesome 😎
Thanks for watching man.
Keep the videos coming, you find great artifacts!
Will do thanks for watching
Awsome videos love all the finds
Thank you!!!
Nice saves! I love finding those old skeleton keys!
It's the first one I've ever found. I was wicked excited. I collect them. I've got a ton that I bought or was given
@@19SAA88 congratulations! It’s only a matter of time before another one comes along. I’ve found them in the middle of the woods with nothing else around. You’ll find one when you least expect it!
Shawn, Whereabouts in NY state are you?
I live in Schenectady County how about you
I live in Schenectady County how about you
I appreciate all the comments glad you guys are all enjoying the videos
Nice saves !! Looks like a heck of a spot !!😎👍
I actually have permission to look in right around 10 different fields i bounce around to whichever field I felt like hitting that morning or did well in the last time I was out
@@19SAA88 Heck yeah 👊
Dang awesome finds, and a smoker in there , too !!!! Subbed ya brother, good luck out there !!😎👊⛏⛏🍀
Really appreciate it, man. I do almost all my hunting and fields, so I find a lot of Brooks and tools, but every now and then, I do find something incredible. I'll subscribe to you as well!
Nice 👌
@@historylooker7 thanks
History 😎👊
@historylooker7 never thought growing up I'd be into historey it but it's what keeps me sane now. I appreciate all comments.
😎👊
Thanks for watching!
@@19SAA88 😎✌
It's so interesting, right? Thanks for sharing.
Nothing is more interesting to me. To think that another person sat in these same field hundreds even thousands of years ago and made these arrowheads to use in there everyday life is just incredible. And then out of all the people in my area that arrowheadhunt I'm the one that happened to walk that field that day.
sweet video dude keep up the good work and keep the content coming
thanks for watching man.
Thanks for the hunt bro. Its always fun tagging along. Peace
I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Br9 that was an excellent hunt
Thanks man I've got 3 videos left to release really hopping that guy in sc is serious about bringing me out.
Nice 👍
Thanks
What is a net sinker?
Native Americans would knock those two notches off of a river rock and then attach it to their Nets to catch fish
That's an Indian love stone...just another f'ing rock.
How do you figure. it is made of chert and has flakes taken off all over it. It is most definitely a core
Stone is wet... hard to tell if theres impact abrasion around the lip of the divot,or if if there are fine striations inside the hole, and polished from use as a mortar,we are both in new York, some pestles were wood and don't leave much evidence...invest in a decent jewelers loupe..., you will be able to see the details of deliberate working seriously up close and personal...looks like one..
I ended up deciding to leave this at the creek the inside of the divot was rough and not smooth almost like there was some kind of nodule that fell out
Just found your cast.. glad to find another New York State collector. In between Buffalo and Rochester NY, find a lot of most unusual tools and one of a kind unexpected stuff.... very well acquainted with Onondaga chert... Where are you,if I may ask ??
I live in Schenectady County
It is a type or chert
Probably Onondaga..I'm between Buffalo and Rochester NY, where you find chert you get limestone...we find a very nice looking variety of the chert that is light grey to blue.... Also find a lot of palm to hand size limestone spearheads.... glad to find someone else in the glorious state of new York
@mikereilly7629 I live in Schenectady County I have found gray blue black and green the green in normaskill chert
It appears to be Obsidion.
its some kind of chert
Cool
Thanks
Thanks for taking me along. Keep at it brother. Peace
Every one is with me in spirit.
It blows me away how the technology of point crafting changed Clovis and Folsom points were the pinnacle and then the deluge and catastrophe around 10-11,000 years ago happened And the points since then are crude and nowhere near what they used to be Pretty interesting and wild to me.. There’s a few places out here in AZ where you can find obsidian knives and spear points, arrowheads It’s a wild place, just outside Flagstaff
@blackflag-bountyboys that would be super cool to find some artifacts made from obsidian. I do find some really nice stuff from time to time but I do pretty much all field hunting and the plow's are unforgiving.
@@19SAA88 for sure I’m from MN and ND Have a couple really nice pints from up there Seriously, if you ever come out here let’s go on a search
@@19SAA88 I have a bucket full of cool stuff, and a smaller one of the really nice ones In fact, I carry obsidian with me and donate it to the lands and spirits of the people before me, whenever I’m hunting an area Out of respect and giving back
Good finds man, congrats
Thank you. Thanks for watching!
I've found 6 in 20 years. LOL
You just gotta check thos spots were you found those there gotta be more.
Keep it up Shawn.Peace
I plan to till I'm old and grey lol. Thank you for watching
Really enjoy your videos.
Thank you so much! It make me happy to know people do enjoy my videos.
CORN!!!
@@JackMyhoff-wy5mc corn as far as the eyes can see lol
@@19SAA88 I just harvested my one bushel from one row just the other day because grasshoppers killed them overnight but it gave me seed for next year. Any tips for north Tx beside maybe “water the s out of them”? I couldn’t imagine how to No till in corn but I do have a thick wildflower patch that in hindsight might have worked better than tilling such a small area and letting the grass take over… y’all big timers run a chain through your trenching every 2 or 3 months right? Grass is worse than grasshoppers 1000%
@@JackMyhoff-wy5mc When I said my fields, I just meant the fields that I have permission to look in. I do not grow any of the crops in the fields that I walk. Sorry for the confusion
@@19SAA88 you lied to me…
@@JackMyhoff-wy5mc lol I guess technically but not intentionally
You pulled that tip from your ass
Thats a cool find man
If you think this is cool you should see some of my full length videos and find some really cool stuff check my latest.
New sub for ya.
Hell yea thanks a lot!!
That big Levana point is a good one.
Man I was so pumped
@@19SAA88 fighting a plow never makes it easy in a field.
Hey, what area of upstate New York are you in?
I live in Schenectady county. how about you?
@@19SAA88 in Ulster county, near New Paltz.
@@Eastwing74 New Paltz is about an hour from me how's the arrowhead hunting out that way?
@@19SAA88 really awesome all the farm fields pretty much everywhere you go in Ulster county have remnants of the natives.
@@19SAA88 I am also about 45 minutes from Orange County where they have the black dirt. It’s a famous area because they recovered a whole mastodon skeleton out of the ground.
Hey, I’m from upstate New York. Are you in the Catskill mountains?
I am not but I'm not too far is that were your from how the arrow head hunting up that way
Oh arrow heads lol my bad
All good. Iv got plenty of full video of some nice stuff on my channel check it out if your interested
I don't get it
It is the broken tip to a native Arrowhead
Obsidian knives and arrows were sharper than surgical knives
I don't either. I can't believe anyone watches this for fun
@@bobjones3069 I'm in groups on face book with 100k members if you don't like it you don't have to watch. Lots of other people are interested and will. 🤙🏼
@@JackMyhoff-wy5mc That is true about obsidian. The material that is made out of the arrowheads I find doesn't get quite that sharp.
Great day in the field, awesome recoveries, keep on em 😎😎😎
Thank you!! Unfortunately the corn to tall know.. iv got several more Saturdays worth of videos to put out still though. Glad you are enjoying them.
tip i don’t understand
Arrowhead tip I'm guessing
It's a broken tip to an arrowhead
I have full length videos where I find much better stuff.
Nice hunt. Once found a huge levana in a footprint. Peace
That's crazy. We are all walking over all sorts of stuff we can't see yet.
Broken tip of what?
Arrow head
@@grumpymonk2460 cool! Def a keeper!
Hard to tell the general term is arrowhead but could be a knife, Arrowhead, spear point, or other such stone tool. Thanks for watching!!
How far upstate are you? You should try Jefferson county.
That about 3 hours from me. Good looking up there?
Вааааау, круто!!!!
thanks!
Hey just a tip, the videos don’t get views if they are under 10 minutes: enjoy your finds
30's is all that is needed for a video to be counted as a view. so says a quick google search?
