- Here at Heartbreaker Relics, passing along the passion for hunting and collecting Native American artifacts is a huge part of what we would like to accomplish. We took a big step in that direction on this trip. In "The Making of a Relic Hunter" you will see a young man find some of the finest artifacts even a seasoned hunter would be trilled to find. Come along with us and share another great day of finding arrowheads and special artifacts in the creek.

I'm from southeastern ky I've found 4 game balls . congratulations kenneth
Awesome! Congratulations.
I've got a soup can full of those game marbles I've found on my land in Kentucky. And lots and lots of native American artifacts
That's awesome!
Beginner's luck = hooked for life.
Yes sir! He has been hooked ever since.
My 17 year old son has had luck in everything from metal detecting to artifact hunting. Once found an arrowhead by chance metal detecting Always on the hunt. Lol
Amazing. Love it. Nothing in the world as peaceful & yet exciting as rounding the next bend of a creek! Nose pointed down, eyes riveted to the changing flow of the water, hoping & praying you'll run across at least one arrowhead. Finding them buried in the sides of the creek, just a point sticking out, WOW! WHOOPEE!! Really?! Then finding a round game ball on a sandbar. You keep in mind the "lucky" areas. And the added benefit of all the wildlife you come across, this is what heaven should be.😍
Carol Marlin Thanks for the great comment and GL&HH.
Looks like a lot of fun guys and I'll have to say it is certainly awesome to hold something like that in your hands. But do you document your funds so that archaeologists might be able to determine something of the sights used and the time periods that those archaic people were there? A point in the hand is pretty neat but the story behind it could be even better. Good luck.
Thanks. It is fun. I keep records on all my finds.
@@HeartbreakerRelics awesomely awesome!
Kenneth like your S.Padre Shirt from Tx
Thanks!
We only live life once but we get the chance to live it again through these objects people touched and handcrafted thousands of years ago.
So true. That's a big part of why we do this.
my grandson and i are impressed. cool finds.
Thank you so much.
Send me a 10 pound bag of that gravel! I'll pay ya for it! Nice points but the petrified wood, rocks and other relics are super cool finds also! Loving it !!!
Thanks for watching and for leaving comment. The pw is great but the gravel is just that, gravel. The blue stuff is clay.
Heartbreaker Relics , thanks for responding! I'm a major rock hound as well relic and Petrie wood collector. Can't get out any longer, health issues you know. I saw some beautiful rocks, agate and the like and you know what they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure! We don't have gravely creeks here and as I stated, can't get out any longer but sure wish I could. I enjoyed the video and finds so much but I am envious of that gravel anyway. Looking forward to your next video. 😊
We try to bring out some of the p-wood from time to time and I save as many agates as I can. It is quite a haul out of there so weight is a factor lol. Thanks again for watching and for the comments.
Hey this is uncle John from Kennedy Relics in north east alabama. We dig a lot of shelters and walk plenty of fields. Give me some pointers for creek hunting. Not much luck but might need another approach from the experts
I find a roud rock bigger than a baseball in the mountains off north Carolina but I have no clue what is it..
Beautiful arrow head. I think the people who made this was feeling the beauty too.
Thanks!
AWESOMELY BEAUTIFUL GORGEOUS FIND MR.KENNETH!! CONGRATULATIONS SIR.🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒
Thanks Sharon.
@@HeartbreakerRelics
U'RE VERY WELCOME MR.KENNETH.
Oh my goodness,looks like fun!!keep up the hard work,I love to watch.
Thanks for watching and for the comment. It is so much fun.
THE ARROWHEADS HAVE A LOT OF GOOD COLORS. NICE HAUL GUYS.
Thanks. That is one plus of Mississippi Citronelle Gravel Chert. It may not be very big but the colors are great.
I found a perfectly round carved stone ball on a job site in Foster City Ca. in the late 80's. It was in the dirt next to San Francisco Bay's southern, delta-like end. I suspected it was something unusual and kept it. No idea where it's currently stored but it was similar in size and grain structure but lighter colored. Time to go through my rock collections.
If you have some round stones I’m interested in them $
Some beautiful and choice discoveries there! Nice stuff!
Thanks.
wow. I want that piece of wood. It's gorgeous. Awesome finds.
Thanks. You should see it after I cleaned it and put a finish on it.
Spike
I live in a Nursing Home and view your shows daily.
Bless you sir. We do so appreciate your support and all the kind words.
another awesome video. Kenneth tore it up. what a great day
Thanks Scott. As you know that's been a very productive hole.
yes sir... I hope we can find a few when y'all come over. don't do much digging here but we gonna try
Well, you know us. We surely don't mind digging.
The spherical "stone game ball" is actually a tendon or ligament ball from a long dead large animal. All creatures including us have these in our bodies, ours are very small but there purpose is to act as a a mount for tendons to attach to on both ends. They also act as a universal joint to allow a broad area of movement when the ligaments stretch and contract. Great find mind you i find them all the time up here in Canada though not one so large. Beautiful arrow heads also!! Keep up the good work
Are you saying it's a large, round sesamoid bone? It looked like rock.
@@nelsonx5326 If something dies in a condition especially mud where there is no oxygen will change the chemistry of everything relative to the PH level of the water changes what type of stones they will become. Time is also a lie. After 40 years of a fence in the desert at 30 years of a constant Temperature above 40 degrees will turned into petrified wood!!! A world War 2 tank was just found half buried in a swamp and the top in the air, obove the ground remained Steel. The other half in the mud became stone. Found 2 years ago.
I love the way you photograph your finds, great job
Thanks. We realized that the most boring part of relic hunting videos is the wrap up so we decided to try something different and it works. Thanks again and GL&HH.
Awesome day, and great finds!
Thanks. Also thanks for watching and for leaving a comment.
Love y'alls adventures, stay safe from IDA
Thanks. We gonna try!
Hey Spike & Randy & Kenneth nice bunch of artifacts. Great points there, that is a nice game ball. I enjoyed the video Thank you.
Thanks Tommy. As always we appreciate you watching and leaving a great comment. Thanks.
Loved your video! That would be a happy day for me looking for arrowheads and other things in that beautiful clear water. I miss going camping and hiking and have found some things along my life. But I never got a chance to do what you guys do in the water. You get a big smile from me!👍😊
Thank you so much for the great comment. I have to admit, creek hunting is my favorite way of finding artifacts. Thanks again and GL&HH.
I collect the old hand ground agate marbles. Im waiting on a jade marble now that a friend made me for making a part for his rock saw. That game ball is too cool. Yalls videos are great. Thanks fellas and God Bless Us All.
Thanks! We appreciate that.
Im making stone marbles now. Im working on the 14th. one now. I got that jade marble I was waiting on and its awesome. I love your videos and stay safe fellas.
I think he's hooked awesome find for him that game ball and bird point.thanks for the great videos and good luck to you guys
You're right. He is hooked. Thanks for the great comment Jeff and GL&HH to you.
Kenneth will be biten by the stone now, that was one sweet Birdpoint he found & Randy & You did pretty good to, always good to see others getting the younger generation started, something I need to do more of, best wishes hunting Spike, Randy & Kenneth when ever ya drag him back out
Thanks Brooksy. I remember wanting to learn how and where to start this hobby many years ago, not knowing who to even ask. My cousin offered to show me a few spots and I remember how much help that was and how much I appreciated it. Maybe one day some of these younger ones will look back and remember us doing the same for them. GL&HH my friend.
Brooksy's Nomadic Adventures
I wanted to be an archaeologists when I was a kid, I was fascinated with arrowheads and Indian artifex. I’m 25 and just stumbled upon 2 quarts arrow heads in the span of a week. in wetumpka Alabama. They had churned the dirt in random places of the property and they were just sitting on top after it rained
Love your videos. You guys attitudes make my day! Just love it!
Thank you so much.
That bird point is insane!
Thanks.
Man that looks fun!!! I wish I had the place and time!
Thanks. It is a blast. It's funny you say that because I sit and watch folks metal detecting colonial sites and think "man that looks like fun. I wish we had those kinds of sites around here".
Heartbreaker Relics :) Yes, I have a metal detector I bought for just that... but just can’t find the time. BUT.....4 years and 5 months and I will be retired! I know there are plenty Native American artifacts waiting to be found down here in the south. Is this private or public land you guys are on?
speculizer1971 The land and small creek in this video is all private land. The big creek is public.
Nice game stone! Never done any creek hunting but I find plenty in fields! Good luck! 👍
Thanks. We don't find that many but I would love to find more. GL&HH
Great video! Me and a friend just found 8 game balls just a week or two ago walking up a river near a place where different clans used to gather. They are such beautiful pieces.
I love game balls. I guess because they come in so many different sizes, plus we just don't find a lot of them down here. Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment.
If I could knap points half as nice as that sweet little bird point, I'd be one happy woman! Guess I'll keep working on it. Thanks for the video, guys!
Thanks for watching and for the comment. That is a beautiful little point, more of a piece of art than a tool. Thanks again.
awesome game ball ! I have found a lot of them in the desert southwest .Most are hematite and limestone here but we have found a few from chert , emerald and one amethyst game ball
Very cool!
Awesome finds!
Thanks.
Beautiful pieces. I grew up playing with a couple those round rock hard my grandmother had. Ironically it was my other grandmother and grandfather who were half Cherokee and Souix indian lol. Later in life, maybe 10- 15 yrs ago, I found a small round white stone..... And of course, a few kids later, I can not find it hahaha. Great video by the way
ronnie lard same story almost too the T your story is almost like a time capsule of my life. My grandmother turned out to be Cherokee didn’t find out until I was twelve but she has taught me how to enjoy the great outdoors relic hunting only she knew more camp sites in Iowa than one could possibly dream of. She actually grew up studying the Ioway, Sioux, camp sites turning most of her 17 grandkids into hunting fanatics . Just responded because of your comment happy hunting always go the extra mile.
Wow great game ball Kenneth! It reminds me of one I found when I was deer hunting with my dad several years back. Mine was 3/4 buried in the dirt right at the side of a path we were on. I looked down at a deer track and saw the game ball and it just looked "out of place" so i dug it up with a stick and you would'nt believe my surprise when that thing rolled out onto the top of the ground. My best find ever. Congrats on yours and good hunting.
Isn't that a great feeling when you find something like that. Especially when you weren't expecting it. Thanks for watching and for the great comment.
Spike
Yeah there's nothin like finding something like that when you're not even looking. Thanks for the videos.
Thank you for watching them.
days like those are really memorable and get you hooked all I have seen Kenneth find is bird points lol lucky dogg lol great vid
Thanks. Yeah Kenneth is a bird point magnet!
wow I love the sphere he found, awesome job guys!
Thanks. We appreciate the compliment.
I really enjoyed this video, my uncle was an arrowhhead hunter but he deceased before he ever got to teach me the ropes. I hope one day I'll get out there and hunt for them as well. It's hard knowing where to start as a novice but your videos are very helpful! Best wishes from Baltimore Maryland.
Thank you for watching and for the great comment. We're glad you're learning from our videos. That is what it's all about, sharing. GL&HH.
I found a white stone ball the size of a pool ball in South Jersey any ideas how old and what it could be?
No, I'm afraid we don't know.
Some excellent finds, but strangely, I really like that piece of wood you found - will make a fine bowl :-)
Thanks. I cleaned up the burl and lightly sanded the high spots to bring out the grain and put four coats of polyurethane on it. It turned out great. Thanks for watching and for the comment.
A fine bowl to keep your arrowheads in.
Happy to hear you changed the size of mesh screen. Would love to show you some of my finds from south west to south central missouri. Looking forward to more video from your neck of the woods.
Thanks. I have seen stuff from your area and I am jealous. There are some amzing artifacts uo there. GL&HH
I’m loving these videos! This Jackson County boy hopes to see what else you Greene County guys find! 😎👍
Thank you! Actually Randy and Chance are from Jackson County , I (Spike) am from Harrison County and Kenneth is from Greene County. Thanks again for watching and for leaving a comment.
Awesome finds
Thanks and GL&HH.
I love beginners lucky its what makes you wanta keep finding more heck yeah 👍
You're so right!
Beautiful
Thanks.
I enjoy your videos & finds < keep um coming
Thanks.

Thank you!
Another great video I really enjoy the hunt. Thanks guys awesome first find young man.
Thanks Calvin, for watching and for the comment. He had a great day today too.
@@HeartbreakerRelics very awesome interesting content greetings from UK England Essex near London but I'm curious how the heck them tips get in streams ? The critter could be a eel for sure🐾🐺💪👌😉
Random Fox I'll answer you I'm no expert but they wash in there as the stream erode the surrounding soil during the spring rains these small creeks double or triple in size and volume and flow and are dangerous! They'll sweep you away and the water is brown, turbid and rapid!
great video..thanks guys...
Thank you.
That is so awesome I love looking for artifacts here in Oregon
Thanks. Oregon certainly has some beautiful artifacts.
I love the idea of the music
Thank you.
kenneth getting it done.. 👏
Thank You so much !!! =) Congratulations !!! =D
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. We appreciate it.
thanks for the reply and the links, big help!!
You are welcome and good luck.
Great video!
Thanks.
hey guys ,really enjoy the videos .please do one on things needed to get into point hunting seriously. ive always been a hunter but havent had time to pursue it till now and would like to spend more time in the woods n creeks. Avid fan
Thanks for watching and for the comment. We appreciate your support. Here is a couple of links to some videos that should get you started.

Nice Vid. Thanks!!
Thanks and it is our pleasure. Thank you for watching.
I love going arrowhead hunting I’ve only found 1 though
Keep looking. More will come.
I found one also but its a very nice one.
Enjoyed the vid. Really like the game ball! Good luck guys.
Thanks. Yep, those game balls are few and far between around here. GL&HH
what is that, the game ball? Looks like stone.
It is made from clay, like pottery. They come in all sizes but are not common. No one really knows what they were used for. My personal opinion is they were made while making pottery from clay already prepared for bowls or whatever and given to the children to play with. Just my opinion.
Heartbreaker Relics oh okay thanks for the answer, and your opinion sounds spot on, whom ever had that one in a game of marbles was guaranteed to be the winner lol
They sure would have had an advantage. lol
Congrats Kenneth there will more to come in the future 👍🏻
Thanks. Yes there will.
the artifacts there are great, but me i'm almost more interested in all the nice tumbled agates there seems to be in that creek, some really nice mineralization
Thanks. We keep all the agates that we notice although sometimes we get wrapped up in an artifact and miss some.
@@HeartbreakerRelics no doubt, you could never get every item, there's just too much beauty in those creeks to find everything.
Love the floating sifter
Thanks.
Omg Kenneth! Great point! A game ball! Wow!
Thanks. Kenneth has taken to this hobby like a duck to water but he gets it honestly. It runs in his family. Besides being lucky he works hard at it.
THAT'S THE SMALLEST BOWLING BALL I EVER SAW!
Love y'all guys love hunting point have no place to hunt for them wish could be with.yall win lost my.mom.buddy.to cancer lost hope good hunting guys.god.bless.all.of you and keep you safe
Thank you. We are so sorry for your loss. Prayers for you and your family.
@@HeartbreakerRelics thanks guys dig one for me good luck and have a blessed night y'all my Jesus by with you and your family your friend kenneth in bama
Another great video
Thanks buddy. We appreciate it.
Have yall found another place to dig over there yet?
Heartbreaker Relics nope killings me
Well good luck my friend. We hope you find one soon.
Cool round rock!
Thanks.
it is a eel nice video
Thanks.
Nice finds and Great video
Thanks Gary.
Nice game ball. I found one and my friend said its just a piece of round rock. Im glad i kept it. I Enjoy ur channel. ✌💓😁 FROM EAST TEXAS. You know of any spots I could go hunt around Hopkins County? (Texas) THANK YOU in advance.
Thanks. We re not at all familiar with that area. Sorry. GL&HH
Awesome intro!
Thanks! We try to make each video a little different so folks will have something new to look at each time. Thanks for watching and for the comment.
Cool. I found a small, very red, clay marble in a dirt pile in NYC where they dud up the street to repair something under ground.
Wow! That's cool!
@@HeartbreakerRelics
I really enjoy these arrowhead finding videos. I always liked walking in the woods,
I looked up the thing I found and it could be an Indian relic. Or from the 1800's, a kids marble. No hole through it. It is very round.
The Indians made stuff from fired clay. Did they make fishing sinkers from clay with a hole in them like a bead?
Men in the creek looking for arrowheads very interesting work that these are made well I mean just say is the work that it takes to make one of these ichinen individual Arrowhead is differently made and even seeing an original musket balls something neat I'm learning as I'm going along with you guys on arrowheads I wonder who made them I wonder if they were used for fishing I wonder what kind of fish you have in that Creek I guess no stays stable. I must have been fish is your finding Milan in the creek specially shark teeth that's also interesting thank you for letting me watch your video all continuously watch it sincerely TCB third son of Elvis Presley living in Toronto Ontario Canada way up North Man way up in the cold cold North all right my friend
Thanks for watching and for leaving a great comment. We appreciate it.
@@HeartbreakerRelics hey two thumbs back at you my man I really appreciate you had a time to read my letter and I thank you very much back but still would like to know if that was a musket ball I always thought they made it a LED not stone or was it something for a slingshot like these are artifacts that you're picking up but I also wondered if there were used or involved in fishing probably that's why they're there or are they coming out of the riverbank tried digging in a couple of Riverbanks TCB third son of Elvis Presley never know what you find there man can you dig it baby TCB Back to You Boyz meaning taking care of business
I got to hand it to you boys that is really fascinating stuff of archaeology and anthropology I'm not trying to be any kind of City Slickers just interest me and what you are finding That's History American history and there ain't no balls about that oops scuse me I lost something in the rolling but anyhow yeah that stuff looks pretty Sharp and just plain stuff like that is a real treasure I can imagine what you have in your home would you do a piece so we can see I'm what you have at your home or is this all for sale I don't know yours truly mine your new pen pal TCB third son of Elvis Presley
@@HeartbreakerRelics great comment boys appreciate the comment back I still like your show you working on something new
Cool relic
Thanks!
@@HeartbreakerRelics Congratulations of your relic finds. God know our secret desires and our unspoken thoughts. He leads us to those things that bring us happiness and others happiness also. Thanks for video taping these hunts! Love your shows!
@@RESEARCHINGYOURROOTS it's our pleasure. Thanks again!
@@HeartbreakerRelics U r welcome again.
Love the game ball! The points are fantastic too. The workmanship in these points always gets me. Just by hitting a two stones together. Amazing! Do y'all have a video of how you put together your sifters? They look light weight enough for me to use.
Thanks and yes we do have a video showing how we build our sifters. Here is a link to it. I hope it helps you. Thanks again.
th-cam.com/video/xDxazJogjgQ/w-d-xo.html
Awesome nice done good boy !! What kind of stone is the red? Are they agates??
Thanks. The red stone is probably heat treated Mississippi citronelle gravel chert (river rock).
Love your channel!
Thanks so much. Please tell your friends about us. Thanks again & GL&HH.
What is the song starting at 13:53? Really like that sound. Great vid!
It's called "Daisy Dukes" by Silent Partner from the TH-cam library. Thanks.
Heartbreaker Relics No, thank you! What a beautiful song. Reminds me of the good ole days when things were simpler and didn’t have a care in the world.
@@MrKnightcastle I felt the same way about it when I found it in the TH-cam library.
Spike
Nice
Thanks
That round rock is a game ball... Nice. Are they usually made out of the same type of mineral? I have a ton of them. I live in Minnesota, i finding artifacts and fossils all over.
At 14:53, isn't that a little point under the tree, in the lower right hand of the photo??
Thanks but it's just a small rock kind of shaped like a point.
love the finds guys .thanks for showing.i think it was a leech lol
Thanks. Leeches around here are pretty much flat although it is a possibility. We looked it up on the computer and it really resembles a baby Lamprey eel. Thanks again and thanks for leaving a comment.
Thanks gentlemen for the video.Im here in B.C. Canada done a little digging myself mostly points and a scrapper.All made from black slate way up at a mountain lake.Good fun. Not sure what you mean by a game ball? native? or clay marble?.Thanks for video.
Thanks for watching and for the comment. A game ball is actually a clay marble but not a colonial marble. Both are made of clay but the native American game balls seem to be a little more primitive. No one actually knows what they were used for but are found in context with know native American sites.
I enjoyed your video :) Keep it up!
Thanks for watching and for the encouragement. GL&HH
Looks like a lot of petrified wood in that creek?! That game ball was a smoker. I sometimes think they may have also used them to roll in between the hides of animals to soften them up a bit.
There is a lot of petrified wood in there. More than I have seen anywhere. In that creek, find the pw, find the artifacts. That's a pretty good theory on the game balls. Thanks again and GL&HH.
I believe the eal like thing you guys caught is whats know as a amphuma and it actually a type of salamander and grows to be one of the largest salamander in north America
Thanks for your input. It is actually an eel but if you want to see a very large type of salamander hang around. We have a video coming out on May 31st with one in it.
Nice finds, love the game ball. You don't find those everyday.
Thanks and nope, you sure don't. That is a memory Kenneth will have the rest of his life. That was only his first whole arrowhead he has ever found and to follow it up with the beautiful little bird point and then the game ball, well he's hooked for good.
Field Stomper very true. Fortunately I have one. It's alot bigger than the one in this video. It's baseball sized. Ran across a great find a couple hrs ago. I can't wait to look around more and start digging. Was just cleaning up a lil and noticed some glass and odd stuff and bam an arrowhead. Found a very very odd rock, and a white marble that looks nothing like what I'm used to seeing as a marble.
This rock looks like its been altered for a specific use/reason. It's looks like a stack cake but it's odd shaped. Kinda triangular with a darker rock from top and has what looks to be to look like an eye and or it's circular and odd that this thing is layered like a brick mason would kinda. Looks like two different colored rocks we're worked then layered to make one rock. Any clue you all may have or is this just an odd rock. The spot on that ball in the video looks the same on the rock. It's like as if the darker part the two different rocks used to make one. The two layers between top and bottom are white with a thin looking(mortar joint) dark line then white then back to dark. This thing is odd and I feel it's gotta be something
I found a game ball two years ago that looks similar in size to this one. One of my favorite finds!
from the woods
I find those same color and size marbles every time I dig a hole for a fence post in older areas of Salt Lake City. You can always find a small flat spot where it sat for kiln.
you put together a very nice video.you earned a sub.
Thanks. We appreciate it. You'll have to go back and catch up on some of the others. We think they are all good. We try to make each one a little different.
I will make shore to do so
Awesome video the entry to the video was super, I enjoyed it a lot, being a rock hound I like to look at the rocks as well as the points, the petrified wood is superb💗
Thank you so much for noticing the hard work we put in and for the kind words and complement. We love the petrified wood but soon realized we could not bring it all out of this creek. We love it all too, even the wood. I have some beautiful pieces that I have brought home. Thanks again and GL&HH.
What's that ball?? That's neat that3
It's a game ball made of fired clay (pottery). No one really knows what they were used for. Personally I think they were just toys for kids.
That worm / Snake thing is called a Ling.............. They grow up to 5 to 6 ft. or longer . They are also here in Ontario Canada as we caught 1 years ago not knowing what it was, luckily another fisherman knew to inform us. They stay long and Sleek and are Black in color . Ours was caught in Lake Ontario if that helps with which bodies of water they are seen and can survive in. Love the Video . Speaking of unusual things to find in unusual places, I just found an Effegy Human head that's about 4.5 in. long by 2.5 wide with a perfect semetrical hole about 1.5 in. down from the top of which is the head area. I believe the hole represents the Eye . The Eye area appears to have a Diamond like shape surrounding the outer eye tho it is not perfecty Diamond shaped you can see an attempt to cut the Diamond shape around the eye. The back of the eye was not so meticulously done and is a chunked out tear drop shape. I found my Effegy in a tore up parking lot down the street from where I live. How Kewl is that.............I also found a Stone Age Nail File touring Creek beds. Happy Hunting Guys. I'm your Canadian PT competition . Will be Posting my Artifacts Video soon.
Thanks and good luck with your channel and your relic hunting.
It's not uncommon to encounter migrating eels. There's a place all eels go to spawn -- the Sargasso Sea off the Atlantic coast. It's mysterious, actually a gyre (giant rotating current). There may have once been a land mass there that played a role in eel evolution. Both European and American eels travel there. Learn more: usfwsnortheast.wordpress.com/2018/04/18/the-american-eel-tale-of-a-champion-migrator/
I've found two of those game balls of that size. One of them had been died a dark blue. I also found a marble size clay ball with a finger print in it
Robert Gamble Awesome, especially the fingerprint.
Check out the Gilcrease Museum website for some nice photos of Mississippi game balls (chunkey balls) although they look quite different - not perfectly round. I recall reading somewhere that the round balls may have been used spiritually to help call game to the hunter or fish to a favorite fishing hole. Some folks believe these balls were used for cooking and warming food - rather than look for nice cooking stones you carried these with you - heated them up and dropped them into a wood bowl for cooking.
And there weren't many large rocks in our area suitable for heating food. Thanks again for the info.
Your videos are really nice, and enjoy the music too! So glad to see the next gen with you, and teaching him the love of a lifetime hobby that never gets boring. I just started hunting several months ago and I mostly find what I think are tool artifacts, along the creek banks. I don't dig, just surface hunt, and sometimes in the creek. I really love it, since I have retired. But, getting a bit frustrated with my ID of the things I find. I have gotten books from library on artifacts, but so far, they mostly depict the arrowheads, points, etc., which I don't find. Do you guys know of any books I might could do more research on stone tools, etc.? I have been on web, but don't find a lot of tools, either...maybe not searching right or? And, I do prefer books, as they take less of my time than searching on web (although youtube vids are even better, not many peeps ID all their pieces when they find them)...Any heads up, advice you can give is appreciated. Haven't seen but a couple of your vids so far, but look forward to seeing a lot more! Thanks you guys...wish I was there!! Singing Wolf
Thanks for watching and for the great comment. The book that seems to be a standard among collectors is "Overstreet Arrowheads - Identification and Price Guide - 14th Edition". It does have some tools in it. Points are identified by the areas they are found. I am including a link to a Projectile point guide. Pick out the area you are from and see if this helps.

We are not the best at "typing" points either. It takes a while to be able to readily identify certain points but once you figure one out it gets a little easier. We are still learning ourselves. Good luck and thanks for your support.
Heartbreaker Relics Thank you! Appreciate your time!! I know it will help!☺ Best wishes! Singing Wolf
r clark..great website thanks
Any thoughts of bringing out some of the agates, jasper and petrified wood to trade or sell to those of us without the great finds nearby where we live? How do you research the items to learn about when and where made? Great video!
We keep all the agates and jasper pieces we find. As for the petrified wood, we thought about it briefly but after one trip out with about 75 pounds we quickly reconsidered it. We are still trying to work out a way to get the driftwood out though. The following link is where we get a lot of our information but we rely a great deal on comments from viewers. We have learned more in the two years since we started this channel than in all the years before combined. Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment and for the compliment.

Great video! I have been watching ya’ll’s videos for awhile trying to learn the tricks to creek hunting and digging up artifacts. I went on my first dig this morning. It wasn’t very successful, although I did find a lot of flint on surface. I didn’t realize y’all were in Greene county. I’m from Clarke country Alabama about 45 mins away. Do you ever take people and teach them how to hunt creeks? My little boy and I plan on trying to find some creeks here and trying our luck soon.
Thanks for watching and for the great comment. We would love to take everyone that has an interest but unfortunately we just don't have the time or the sites. We are having trouble paying back everyone we owe hunts to. If there is flint or chert chips on the surface you are on a good site.
Gotcha. I have found some surface finds in this spot including a hammer stone so I figured it would be a great spot to dig. The only thing it has clay about 4 inches deep and roots everywhere. It was really hard. Our next adventure is to hit the creeks. Keep the instructional videos coming and good luck in the future!
Thanks again and good luck!
awesome video i really want to go with ya
