These type of large Ice Age sites are very rare from this region. I'm sure that there are many more archaeological sites like these out there, we just need to find them!
Outer ring for the males, inner ring for the females? Are the flakes different sizes in the rings? THe outer ring might do general work and the inner ring works points to a finer detail? The more infuential or important family or older members work in the protected inner ring.Just some ideas. Could be anything. Interesting stuff.
My speculation is that "aggregation" groups would have been the norm, and that lone families camping or migrating by themselves would be an anomaly. There are advantages to camping and migrating as a group that are not available to small family units. I also think that the first people to migrate into the Americas were probably a sizable Tribal group, and not a small, isolated family group. Tribal cohesion supports reproduction, security, group activities, skill-sharing, and cultural continuity.
I have one site for sure possibly two sites in New York for you to see if you are interested. I have two fines that I can share with you
This is it Jay.. full circle, Proud of you..
I am sooooooooo glad to actually see someone studying the area there, I was very upset about the solar panel projects and did my best to spread awareness and such
The idea of these scattered family groups coming together during the Spring Migration at these aggregation sites makes a lot of sense. These people seemed to understand the dangers of inbreeding and annual gatherings of extended family groups would allow for the arrangement of marriages and trade of small goods like jewelry and textiles. This is a very well done presentation!
No sensationalism, excellent presentation, editing and educational value through the roof! Great work Jay and greetings from the Netherlands.
dramatic music while an archaologist climbs a a hill, while you assemble your gear doesn't make it less boring to watch!
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
I will be honest, when i clicked on this, and noticed you only had 200 subs, i almost clicked off again. I have become wary of smaller channels pumping out generic scripted auto voiced garbage. I'm happy to say that i stayed. I was genuinely surprised, and impressed by the quality of this video. I will be happy to come back, and have subscribed.
I thought same
Thank you very much, I have a lot more videos to come!
Thank you for the kind words! I hope that you enjoy my future videos also!
Gotta love that cooky algorithm 🙄😆
@@JayCicconeArchaeology i learned new information from this video also, i actually never knew about the fact that coloured stone was even used for these artifacts. First time hearing about it.
As an open field artifact searcher this is truly informative. Now i have a much different outlook on areas in East Central Ohio where there are large flake areas and fields with very large very out of place flint nodules. Seasonal camps amongst swamps and creeks? Now my mind is forming much firmer thoughts on ancient residents here.
Redhead Backpack! From 2011-2016 I was the "Camping" guy at one of the Bass Pros. Love it. I think you got your stakes there too. Great store. Here is a helpful camping tip- a coffee percolator is a natural water filter. The boiling kills the bacteria and the coffee is your carbon filter.
Well! Hell ya!!! 👍🏼
This was extremely well done & very interesting. I've been hunting/collecting arrowheads on our 330 acres for 30 years & feel like I still haven't uncovered a majority of what's out here. Excited for your future content.
very nicely done. I have an Ice Age site here on my farm in Western Mass. You film was helpful in that regard. Thanks joe
Thank you very much!
Great video! I’m so excited to be a sub before you blow up! So well done.
Thank you!!!
Subbed, someone who actually is doing the work is better than someone just talking about it.
I think you are spot on. I've been making wigwam/tipi/wikiups for 5 decades and have found that most local materials work well into 13-15' diameter shelters...giving enough head room and sleep room for small "families". Part of that involves the time it takes to make the dwelling. Also the weight of the cover to carry on following seasonal migrations. I think I'll subscribe.
13 - 15'?What is the size in meter, centimeter?
This channel will get bigger soon.. this is awesome I'm right from this area upstate New York good content
Thank you!
Hi from Britain, I liked your film, with your kit, pack and casual approach, good stuff👍
Thank you!
OK, you have my attention I'm a New sub think you 😮😊
amazing video, i always love finding smaller channels like yours. i cant wait to watch it grow
What a fun fathers day adventure thanks subbed❤
Good overview of the past. Nicely done. Keep up the good work.
Well done!!!!!
Megafauna did not die out “because of climate change” for the 26 other, previous interglacial periods. The only difference that most recent start of an interglacial ~13,000 years ago was the presence of human hunters, who were excellent.
Scattered clans over vast amounts of land hunting with rocks and sticks I've always had a hard time believing that.
Very happy that this channel came across my TH-cam. New subscriber from the Pioneer Valley.
You have great information I love history and thank you for teaching us the different types of site I would have never thought of the different types of styles
I'm a 50+ year NY'r who lives on the terminal moraine and has spent quite a bit of time in the HV, I commend your research.
I have seen chirt locations on hikes in my ute, and often wondered about the people who came way before us...
Sub'd
This is gonna get you there already, fantastic content and editing (I'm no critic). Need you on Discovery+ or somethin!
That was an incredible video. You are an artist as much as you are a scientist. I really appreciate the effort you put into every aspect of this video, I learned so much while being genuinely entertained at the same time. I’m rooting for you my friend, I wish for you fulfillment and success, and when it comes(if it hasn’t already) it will be well deserved. Thanks for your high quality creations. Cheers
What a great video, I just stumbled on a great channel it looks like. TH-cam suggested this video knowing my love of archaeology and cool lithic material, history and well made educational material. You just got another subscriber !
Amazing.. Keep'em coming
I love anything that has to do with the Paleo era in the Americas. Well done.
Subbed 👍
Good info.its amazing how many people lived here for the last 13,000 plus yrs ago..we find clovis and folsom points here in ky...so far my girl has the oldest find being a folsom found near rough river..mcdaniels ky....a friend of mine found a clovis in perfect condition in bardstown ky.
Interesting! I'm glad to see at least some archeologists working on North American pre history cultures. It's always been a beef of mine on how few archeologists work in North America. I am a hobbyist and work with archeologists at times. And get frustrated at times about how little they know. Thanks for the good work!
Jay, your video mentioned an E-book that might be available. I'd love to know how to get my paws on one.
You have an exceptional ability to teach and tell a story.
Thank you very much, that really means a great deal to me to hear that!
I was just in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, and found 3 Stone Age drills and 1 Stone Age hand ax or scraper
Thanks, very interesting ancient history
I gave you a new sub, this is Fascinating 👍😁
Thanks. 👊🏼✌🏻
Cool stuff, got me curious of the southwest Florida (gulf coast) tool inventory, materials and fabrication methods- augers from marine gastropod mollusks like whelks and conchs but these really are not hard enough for some uses- or repeated use like milling... even if a sharp edge ...our sedimentary dolomitic limestone is not that hard either in Fl.
Thanks for the publication- rock on
New subscriber here love the videos!
This is awesome!!
We would find kill sighs with many old point and find butchering site with different tools and lots of bone
Very interesting to me. I used to live in Ontario and I am now in BC and there is very little history here.No chert either.
We have both here. At least in the interior.
Aggregation site, I never knew what they are referred to as, but was aware that these meet ups had to happen.
Quality stuff i subscribe 🙏
Waiting for the next Ice Age video 😊
There are several in the sante fee. River in Florida
They were big game hunters, and from that ridge top they could spot game a long distance away. Maybe it was chosen to keep the wind to their advantage. Do you find any evidence of heat treating of the material? I guess the only real way to know was to be there.
Well presented 👍
A real on the field archeologist and not a TH-cam university one!! 😮😮😮 ❤❤❤ 🙏thank you for this work, instant sub
Is that the only way a type of rock could end up in a place it's not naturally from? I found a piece of dalmatian stone in a ditch in northeast Missouri and it's really only found in the country of Mexico.
Very cool, thank you
These videos make me so jealous. In 60 years of scanning the ground I have found ONE arrowhead. And a billion flakes from making them....I know what I am looking for...I have Knapped my own. Then he shows the most amazing neon blue chert better than I thought was real and says, "this is not the best" WHAT?? What the hell is the best???? These videos just make me depressed. You are luckier than you know you are. (I'm in Colorado, at 7200 feet).
I have one site for sure, possibly two in New York that I would like to share with you if you are interested. I think you may find them both very interesting. I also have a couple things to show you if you are interested in seeing them
I hate that cliché cleaning at the dig site with a little hand brush. We all know that when the cameras are gone you whip out the dynamite, jack hammer, and 1500 psi power washer.
Why would he use a jack hammer , dynamite and a pressure washer where there is only 2 inches of soil cover , and no source of water supply
Think about what you say
Maybe the little brush is a prop , but what you claim is absurd
This looks like prime tick country. Great video.
It absolutely is full of ticks!
Went back in time,They had a 10 year lease.
What were the gravers engraving?
1. Family with multiple visits. 2. Better stone was still buried 3. Good overview of valley and close to water
There doesn’t seem to be many huge thick trees around there maybe it was a clear area during time the people were living there in groups
im watching this at 1.25 speed so this music is pirates of the carribean
Good video
13,000 years ago.....? Yeah sure! And everything is in the same place?
A real on the field archeologist and not a TH-cam university one!! 😮😮😮 ❤❤❤ 🙏thank you for this work, instant sub
Can you imagine getting ran through with a stone 😮😂😂
Nice. First time I’ve seen your videos in my feed. Subscribed. With that said, did I really hear a Harvard man say newk-you-ler for the word “nuclear” and not the correct pronunciation being new-clear?? I’m going to assume you were simply pandering to the blue collar general public on that one and push on to your next video in the hopes you raise the bar back up to where it should be.
Cool
subbed
I loved the content but the music overwhelms it and is too loud This is good archeology and not a music channel. It would stand alone with just the commentary
Could be. Could be not.
Theirs a lot u just don't know where to look
"At least nearly"? Isn't that an oxymoron?
It's close too an oxymoron but nowhere near one at the same time...
Americans still use feet, miles, acres, gallons etc. We use a modern, metric, system.
I would have to say that your dating is based on an artifact ( clovis ) which you never actually show finding. These worked pieces of stone seem no differnt than more recent artifacts. So I would give you a maybe its an 13000 rear old site, or maybe its 200 years old. Your drawing a conclusion with out real proof. Show me a fluted point that you actually found here. Is there one ? Great video production value, but empty of actual facts.
Yes twice I showed a bright bluish green fluted point that was broken when they were fluting it. I should have discussed that artifact in the video instead of just showing video footage of it, and probably should have shown more of them. Thank you.
@@JayCicconeArchaeology In all fairness, I went back and watched your video a second time. To be honest, I just dont see any compelling evidence of fluted points. You do show some worked pieces of stone, but nothing that came close to being a clovis point. I think you made a very nice program, but next time offer something more in the way of proof, or maybe present things as theory rather than an absolute conclusion. Good luck with your work. One last thought, you might mention that it is a crime to dig and collect on public lands without special permission. Peace brother, stay wild.
Ice age . We still in ice age so the terminology you decided to use is very much idiotic
I like the style of this creator. So far, he is giving context and that helps a person not trained in archeology. Thank you for the work.
Im really excited to find your channel, its honestly fantastic and im seriously impressed. I search for sites here in new hampshire and try to learn whatever i can from them, but my region is notoriously difficult to find artifacts or sites in. I hope i can have even close to the success you have one day.
I hope your channel gets big, you really deserve it!
Thank you so much! Many of the Paleo groups that I study in the Hudson River Valley of New York State are also utilizing the New Hampshire region as well. Some of the artifacts that I find from the Paleo sites here are made of rhyolite from New Hampshire.
Very interesting and well presented. I’ve looked for ancient Native American sites since I was a kid. Found several in eastern and southern Oklahoma. The projectile points, scrapers, awls, and hammer stones look a bit different here as compared to what I have found in Tennessee, Florida, Texas, and a few other places. I find it interesting to look around these sites and wonder just what they were looking at way back when. Why did they choose to set up camp where they did? Your video was one of the better explanations. BTW, in the four years I lived in a small portion of the Hudson Highlands I never found so much as a flake of chert, flint, or any other stone much less a projectile point or scraper and I did look for them.
That's great! I actually do quite a bit of work in the Hudson Highlands, small world! There are some really nice caves and rockshelters there. There is a type of conglomerate that has chert in it that the cultures were using to make their chipped stone tools from.
@@JayCicconeArchaeology -The reservation in Rockland County wasn’t all that big considering the fact a lot of it was off limits.
Thank you. Quality video with great educational content.
From my experience of Stone Age Flint Mines. Which are plentiful on my native, chalk downlands. They were in use for many years, the later years being more organised and planned. If your diagram is to be gone by, it looks like there were four mines in the central location and the production of worked flint going on in the sites around the middle four. There's a similar arrangement in the mines about two hundred yards from where I sit. You can't avoid flint on this land, we even build walls and buildings from it. It was still being worked well into the latter 19th Century, for high quality flint to use in flintlock mechanisms. Used for everything from pocket pistols, to massive naval 64pounders.
Wow that's very interesting! The 16 sites are all just workshop/campsites, the actual quarries and mines are set a little ways away from those 16 sites. I didn't show the main quarries and mines in the film although I certainly should have. Since most of my research is on prehistoric quarries and mines I will definitely be showing those types of activity areas in future videos.
Really enjoyed this video. Appreciate your passion for the archeology and geology of your discoveries. So, I subscribed lol.
Thank you!
Thanks Jay I’m a new subscriber, I’ve only watched this one video of yours and I’m hooked. I’ll definitely be watching more, of all my interests history is the top of my list of enjoyment. Keep up your great work and I look forward to seeing more from you. 👍🏼
"My god it's full of...Leaves." - Stanley Kubrick (kinda)
Oh my gosh thats the prettiest chert I have seen! You've pulled me in with this video! This was super interesting. Thank you
Mate! Excellent. Very professional archaeology and very professional film making. I could have stayed all day at that site ( all day? all season more like). Looking forward to more of your work. Well done you and many thanks from across the pond
Thank you! I've been working at that site for a long time. It's a pretty good one, but I've got much better ones to come in the future, so stay tuned!
very cool channel for real archaeology
Interesting puzzles to work out.
Just had to have been one of the greatest all-time, most entertaining, informative, and generally interesting things. I’ve watched in a long time. Thank you for the laughs and the knowledge.
Wow what a nice thing to say! Thank you very much, I have a lot more coming!
Why you gotta ruin it with climate change bullshit I just subscribed now I’m not gonna
...just saved me wasting 16 minutes of my life... Thanks dude!
The second time I've watched. Simply informative. " Simply informative" is respectful and enjoyable. When I choose a video to learn from, it's not to be entertained by .
Awesome video! I surface hunt an agricultural field that is a multi occupational site. It sits about 3 miles from where the glacier stopped during the younger dryas. The glacier receding left small ponds and lakes and I believe that’s why it’s a multi occupational site. Like most sites it’s out of convenience. Such as your sites. IMO they picked that location because they had material to work and they could see the migrating herds from that ridge. Here in Illinois after the glacier receded it was like an Alaskan tundra. The natives would hunt caribou and camp on any high ground close to a water source. IMO I think they picked the higher ground so they could watch for migrating herds and predators.
I’m always looking forward to finding places like this as I fish I also pick up rocks from different areas that I have fished so I can see how someone can take a rock home from a trip they have gone
Thank You for this video, Jay. It was really interesting and you gave good, clear explanations for your theories.
The chert colours are beautiful and I'm sure that was a factor, no matter how small, in the ancient peoples using it for tools.
🇦🇺
There is a Professor or Dr. Of something I can’t remember which one but it’s not medical DR. he specializes in flint he love’s flint he was or maybe still is on a show in Britain called….Time Team they dig archeological sites and have found some really interesting site’s he find ‘s flint’s everywhere uncovered and covered
I'm so glad the algorithm proposed me your video. Great stuff !
You got any sites close to me in Amsterdam NY 12010? I would LOVE TO GO AND SEE! IM IN THE MOHAWK VALLEY!
What a great video, congrats!!! Your explanations are great and make the video super interesting to watch👍👍
Being such a long time ago they could be 300 years apart
Those blue rocks and the artifacts made from them are just beautiful. I'd be thrilled to find one. Nice.
Right? When he said it wasn’t particularly beautiful chert, my jaw dropped! 😆
I use to report to Breau of archives in florida
Love the color of the flint
Three reasons water food security.
Loved the content. Thanks Jay!
Nice work
