Such interesting finds! They were definitely important tools! For you to find more than one. I would only be guessing to say what I think they are! But most likely to hold something down? Blessings to you.😊
My dear friend, you are right, it is very difficult to know what they really did with them. We can imagine several things but they would only be hypotheses. The best to you and thank you for being here friend. BLESSINGS ALWAYS.
Exactly, when we find them it gives us enormous pleasure, but we get frustrated when we want to know what they were for. That's what's fascinating about some artifacts. BLESSINGS TO MY FRIEND.
Amigo no es un jardin...es un museo!!😃 Para mi es parte de algo mas grande pero no entiendo el agujero...Como siempre video muy interesante, muchas gracias!
Hola mi amigo, es un misterio saber exactamente porque le hacian ese agujero. Estas rocas son parte de un metate quebrado. Tal vez perforaban el metate para atarlo a una correa de cuero y amarrarla a su cuerpo, cuando se trasladaban de un lugar a otro. Saludos amigo y cuidate por esos lugares tan lejanos. BENDICIONES.
Senor, I think this is wonderful stuff! After re-re- watching, I think I can say that the hole, was pecked from both sides. Not drilled. Pecking would leave that type of divit around the perforation. Drilling would leave evidence of circular scratching. I still do not know what it was, for certain... Wonderfu!😊
Yes sir, I can't tell if it was pecked or drilled but they did it on both sides giving it a conical shape that narrows in the middle of the thickness of the piece of Basalt. It has a conical shape on both sides and it's like they carved something there because you don't see any roughness, it looks polished. I was seeing magnificent comments from you about the net weight that other friends were commenting on. I didn't know what exactly net weight was. Thank you my friend for your support.
We occasionally find perforated stones on the river . They, as well as stones with a carved groove around them were used as weights at the bottom of fish nets. Wood floats were used on top of the net to keep it properly deployed
Wow, I knew you would have a more complete answer my dear lady. That wood to keep the nets deployed is great. Your comment is always very valuable. BLESSINGS TO YOU, DEAR LADY.
Hello friend Robert, that is another way to make weights, instead of grove holes to tie ropes. Very good friend. BLESSINGS AND WELCOME ALWAYS WITH COYOTE. Where are you joining us from?
Si amigo, aqui hay mucha caguama con carne y de las de vidrio. Pero creo que ellos capturaban cahuamas de esas que tienen aletas. Imaginate en esa zona de concheros aque bien se alimentaban. Camarones, caracol, almejas, ostiones, choros, mejillones, callo de hacha, langostas, cahuamas. Debieron haber tenido muchos hijos las mujeres. Saludos a mi amigo, compadre y hermano. BENDICIONES.
Qué piezas tan interesantes mi amigo Coyote, a lo mejor se las regalaban como aretes a sus suegras!! 😂 Saludos y gracias por compartir esto tan distinto, ojalá pronto lo acompañe de cacería.
Yes friend, we can imagine many things about those rocks with holes but we don't know exactly what they were for. Thank you for being here with coyote.
Yes friend, as a weight or counterweight for different uses. When you say simply to look, I remember my children, grandchildren or even me when we grab some object that has a hole and look through it. Thank you for being here with coyote. Where are you visiting us from?
You have thought about this a great deal, Senor. You covered just about all of the thoughts, that I came up with. I agree, with, the diving assistance, as being most plausible. I have seen many items repaired, by drilling and tying back together. Large pottery, bannerstones, but it would not be feasible, to repair a matate, or the hole being used as a shaft straightener, but the location of the hole, would not be so close to the edge. For strength purposes. The diving weight usage, would work fine. The hole close to the edge, would use less cordage, to be fully funtional, as a diving weight. I believe you are correct, Senor. It just makes the most sense! Thank You Senor, for a most interesting dillema, to think about. God Bless
The use they gave to certain objects will always remain a mystery. They could also have been used as sinkers when diving for oysters. They were very good divers, when the Spanish arrived they exploited them, using them to dive for the famous Mother Pearl oyster. The largest pearl in the crown of the Spanish kingdom was taken by a native in those times. A hug for my friend, take care.
Very intriguing artifact, was certainly purposeful, closest example from where I look are pieces of steatite bowels , some with a single drilled hole and some with multiple drilled holes, the use has always been a mystery to me😎😎😎
Yes my friend, it is very difficult to say with certainty what its function was. They are all just hypotheses. It was a pleasure to greet you, dear friend, and to know that you are well. BLESSINGS ALWAYS.
Our ancestors were wise, reusing broken items for various tasks. Why waste a broken metate when it could be repurposed as a net weight, or something similar? Thank you, my dear friend, for sharing your ideas!🙏❤️😊
If there has been someone who has known how to use what nature has given him and without altering or damaging it, it is the native who inhabited the earth in ancient times. They established a type of symbiosis with nature. My dear friend, as always, it was a great pleasure to have you here. BLESSINGS ALWAYS.
@@lelandshanks3590 I do not agree, Sorry, Leland, although it Seems like a good idea. In the northeast, Pennsylvania was a very popular place to fish. It still is, there are litterally millions of net weights. Not one is drilled. All of them are flat round stones, notched four times. Perfect to tie to a net. There was no need to use valuable flint, or time, drilling. Notching was the prefered method of attaching them... I am just guessing, but it seems that the shellfish gatherer's desending weight, is most plausable, to me. God Bless Leland. I do like your knowledgable input, but PA. netweights, dont agree.
I know it seems like I am foresaking you, but I am not, Leland. I envy you, because you were in the promised land! You were there! I bow, to you sir! If we stopped questioning, the most obvious explanations, we would never find out the true reasons, for unexplainable artifact's purposes. I wish I could be in BAJA, for just one hunt... You are blessed, sir! Via con Dios! Amigo 👍
Si amigo, es lo mas probable y mas logico. Ellos eran muy buenos buzos tal vez tambien los usaron como contrapesos para bajar a lo mas profundo. SALUDOS MI BUEN AMIGO.
Hola mijo. Nos llama la atencion que hemos encontrado varias del mismo tipo pero no podemos decir con exactitud para que eran. Que esten bien mijo un saludo para linda familia.
Hello, Coyote. That is interesting and I'd love to know why as well. I could understand fishing weights, if you were close to water. Id suspect something else if you were far from water.
OH PERFECT, IT SOUNDS VERY LOGICAL. If they could be used in fish nets, they would also be for rabbits, quail, iguanas and other animals. Very good friend. Thank you. Always welcome here with coyote.
Pretty dang cool 😎, I would say net weights, but who knows 😉 I bet you have a better collection than a lot of museum's 😊, can't wait till next time, good luck 🤞
Yes friend, net weights is a very logical function. Very good. I have a few non-point pieces that I have found over the years. Thanks for being here my friend. BLESSINGS.
@@JayMclean-j4v Yes friend, that's right, but I don't understand how they used them as weights in a shelter, please explain to me. Sorry if I don't know how to explain it to you, I use a translator because I don't know English.
Given the amount of shells there, it seems likely that area was once under shallow water. Could the drilled stones have been canoe anchors, or net weights?
Interesting Coyote, maybe earrings for giant people hahaha. They look like weights for something of light weight, maybe nets or tying a small animal to like water fowl?👍🏻
Surely they were earrings to give to the mother-in-law and she would be left without ears hahahahaha. Yes friend, they can be used for those two options. BLESSINGS ALWAYS.
THEM ARE DEFINITELY WEIGHTS FOR FISHING. IF THERES ANY WATER CLOSE BY YOU GUYS SHOULD TRY DIVING AND SNORKELING THE SHORE LINES CLOSE BY. SOME OF BEST FINDS COULD BE IN THE WATER. FAN THE SILT WITH YOUR HANDS AND SEE WHAT MIGHT BE THERE. MY BEST FINDS HAVE BEEN SNORKELING AND SCUBA DIVING. ANYWAYS MY FRIEND LET ME KNOW.👍🙏
Wow my friend, the sea is 5 km away and they ate seafood. I say this because this entire area is completely covered with shells of all types of seafood and in some places the layer of shells is very thick and old. A diver who is dedicated to removing Catarina clams in that place gave us several rods with very sharp points that he found at the bottom of the sea. These poles measure between 25 to 40 cm in length, they are made from the wood of a tree called ironwood. He says that when the tide goes out too much he will take us snorkeling to look for things there. Other fishermen have found very large spearheads on the shore of that beach. When we have the opportunity we will go and I will let you know. Thanks for being here friend. BLESSINGS.
Here there is also a very large entry of water from the sea towards the land. We call them estuaries, shrimp and other species of fish reproduce there, we have always thought that they could also have left things on the bottom there.
@@coyotearrowheadhunting3083 I think your onto something. Them artifacts can be buried in shell. But try covering alot of area fanning the surface. Might take a couple trips to find the right spot but I'm sure there's so.e great finds out in the water. Picture yourself where you would be fishing as an Indian. GOOD LUCK.👍
That may be possible, there is an estuary or river that flows from the sea when the tide rises. Your comment is very good my friend. Where are you visiting us from? always welcome here with coyote.
My friend, thank you for being here. I use a translator and I don't understand what you're trying to tell me friend. Can you tell me in other words? THANK YOU AND WELCOME ALWAYS HERE WITH COYOTE.

I think that they are net weights. I see by the amount of shells that you are close to the coast. They were harvesting food with nets.
Yes friend, they used nets to catch fish and shrimp. They were also very good boats for getting all kinds of clams and snails. Big greetings to Ohio.
Very interesting. When searching for artifacts sometimes we seem to have more questions than answers. Nevertheless, very cool artifacts! 🙏🏼✌️

It may have been smoothed, with a waterworn stone, to keep the rope from excessive wear... ?

@karenpelletier5707 I have also found stones, but they are made of soap stone & have a grove all a around it so they could tie a cord to it.
Hello friend Robert, that is another way to make weights, instead of grove holes to tie ropes. Very good friend. BLESSINGS AND WELCOME ALWAYS WITH COYOTE. Where are you joining us from?
Belíssima coleção meu amigo coyote 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Meu grande amigo, é um prazer recebê-lo novamente. BÊNÇÃOS SEMPRE PARA VOCÊ.
I think they are weights for fishing nets! Based on the shells you must be near the shore.
Yes friend, coastal groups lived here who lived mainly by eating food from the sea. Thank you young friend. BLESSINGS.

What a great collection Glad I got to see them. Not sure what the basalt rocks are for. More mysteries of the past
Yes friend, we can imagine many things about those rocks with holes but we don't know exactly what they were for. Thank you for being here with coyote.
Might be used as a weight or just to look through.

Also a shaft straightener and scrapper

@jameshines6486 I will follow your advice my friend. It is not easy to go to that place very often but we will explore until we reach the sea.
Perhaps there was a stream where they stretched a weir across and used the rocks with holes as weights or anchors.
That may be possible, there is an estuary or river that flows from the sea when the tide rises. Your comment is very good my friend. Where are you visiting us from? always welcome here with coyote.
