That point is just exquist. Whoever knapped that was a master knapper. Not much could top that except Beaker culture point with a long dainty tail on one side only. Then you'd really have to write home about. Very nice point and blades none the less!
Given one such a connection to people 6K years ago...people with the same concerns in life we have, for food, shelter,protection etc. Best video yet. Thanks for this.
Really? their lives so so distant from an average ^resent day urban dweller who wanders down to the corner shop and has a refrigerator and instant heat cooking appliance in their home.
You've taken me down memory lane with the Mussels and Oysters! My late Dad and me used to collect Winkles, Mussels, Cockels if there had been a rough sea and sometimes Oysters on a Sunday morning to take home and cook for our Tea. Dad used to leave the Oysters in salt water changing it everyday for seven days before eating them and I can still very vividly remember how long to cook winkles, heavily salting them in water first to remove the grit etc and the smell of freshly cooked Seafood with lashings of bread and butter, vinegar and pepper and a hot mug of tea. Thank you Simon for taking me back to those moments of my childhood. My Dad passed away 13 years ago and memories like this with looking for driftwood and building a little fire to heat our cans of soup up whilst we were collecting seafood. These memories are worth more than anything else in the world to me. Thank you x
Yes, we used to do a lot of searching for shellfish when I was a child. The big cook ups and the feast with vinegar, pepper ( plus big slices of buttered vienna loaf) were indeed memorable.
omg I am awe struck as always, but this video which I thought I wouldn't be that interested in, has blown me away. I had tears in my eyes when Sean found that arrow head and was so happy when you both hugged, you could see how much it meant to him to find that. Here in Australia you do find flints made by early Aboriginal people, which is amazing. I do love the things you find. I often find myself shaking my head in wonder watching your videos and the things you find on the Thames or the sea. Great great video. Thank you both.
Awww , I've been a Subscriber for quite some time Si but your little face shone when you found that flint and you brought tears to this old grandma's eyes 🙃🍀 . Really appreciate your time.. thank you .
What great finds...I'm a part time Archeologist and know the thrill you get when you find something extra special. Who needs modern art when you can find beautiful things like this 👍
I've been hunting artifacts in Oregon since I was 4. I have seen you and Nic walk over SOOO many worked pieces! Yet I can't see a coin 90% of the time. It's all in how your eyes are trained.
My eyes are trained for artifacts that you find in a typical dumpsite and I can spot one a mile away. I've wanted to find an arrowhead since I was a kid but don't know what I'm looking at when I'm comes to chips and bits and pieces. I find it interesting how we have trained ourselves differently.
I love Oregon!! In 1991 we went to Cannon Beach and stayed the weekend. We live just outside of Vancouver BC. Our baby did his first roll over there. Great memories. Enjoy!!☀️🌊
Oh WOW. I mean, it fires up the imagination when you find things from the 1500s or 1400s...but imagine the last person to handle those blades and that arrowhead. Imagine the way they saw their world. Think about just how much was yet to come. We have worries and concerns today...but the person who handled those pieces would have had their own share of dramatic do-or-die concerns. Amazing. Just thrilling stuff! Cheers to you both!
Sean is my favourite of your pals! Always lovely to see you two out and about, you are both so genuinely excited and enthusiastic about everything, it's a joy to watch. Big love from north of the wall!
Loved all the sharp flint finds! The arrowhead bit and blades really got my imagination going thinking of the folks who so carefully worked those flints to make the tools which were so clearly important to their everyday lives all that time ago! Thank you both for sharing this history and for bringing us along with you.
Sean's point was beautiful. Larger points like that are usually considered to be knives or atlatl dart points over here. A section of antler works better that a rock for controlled flint knapping
Antler's great for final edge finishing and resharpening or touching up. Knapping is an artform in itself. 👍 I picked it up a few years ago, and started off by practicing on the bottoms of beer bottles and other bits of broken glass. Took me 3 months to make a viable point in the form of an arrowhead 🤣
This is what I do, I find Native American artifacts . The way Sean hugged you, that’s the way I hug my husband when we hunt together and I find something. It’s such an incredible feeling! That arrowhead is truly beautiful! Congrats Sean!!!!! You too Si!! That flint is beautiful! Now come visit America and I’ll show you how to find some beautiful arrowheads!
That arrowhead is a gorgeous work of art, what a find! It's beauty and shape also tells the story that it's creator spent some serious time learning the art of flint knapping. I would imagine whoever taught them was also highly skilled. Each knap mark on that represents a productive moment of that persons life. 6000 years later and it's still an amazing treasure. Love the western and Flint Eastwood references also.. heh! You both had some great luck in the muck my friend!
I found myself SOOOO HAPPY for him & his dream find! I felt like celebrating 🍾 he was just so happy, and it made my insides giddy because the absolute joy on his face and in his voice was so genuine! XOXO 😘
I never did find a flint arrowhead. When hunting for certain rocks, I would pickup every large piece of flint I found and add it to my collection. When we got home, I would have my father look through my finds. Flint pieces look wonderful in rock gardens.
Hey Si, forgot to add how much I appreciate your joyful attitude and zest for knowledge. We are all always learning something or other. Sincerely, a Mudlover from Wisconsin, in the US. 🥰
Great finds Si and congrats to Sean on a stellar find! If you care to know, the reason the blades typically have a high ridge running the length of the blade on one side is due to the nature in which a flake travels. Flakes travel best, as well as more predictably, when following a ridge and over a convex surface. Great video!
Amazing to watch! I'm in Indiana, in the States, and as a child hunted arrowheads with my Dad and Brother. What I find amazing is that half a world apart indigenous people were working and using flint in identical ways! Simply amazing!! Thanks for the educational mudlark!!
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate Sean's hair..? 😊 Giving Steve a run for his money! Edit: The sheer joy alone of finding that arrowhead was worth the entire time, effort and energy! Nice finds..!
This episode was so exciting to watch! It's always a treat to watch you mudlark with your buddies, but I've rarely Sean, (got a lot of Si-Finds videos to watch), this one was particularly exceptional & gratifying. Everyone has a specialty, and Sean's is finding neolithic tools/shards. We were treated to a lesson in finding them, what to look for and how they were used. Every find was an education. But it all came together when Sean found the arrow head/ blade! So excited for him, especially since he was with you! Thank you so much for your hard & dedicated work, and keeping us history lovers 'up-to-date' with the history in the Thames. You are the Mud Lover : D
OMG that arrowhead is a beauty! As a kid I would walk the dry riverbed where I grew up in California and find some nice ones but very rare to find one that good. Congrats to Sean!!! Nice video Sci!
That you can find an item made so very, very long ago is amazing. Sean found a great arrowhead. It would have been so wonderful if you could have found a much larger piece (half ?) of the pottery.
Oh what a fabulous video, that arrow head is beautiful. How amazing to be holding something that was last handled by someone who lived six thousand years ago!😃💚
Lots of bronze and iron age stuff around here. Quite often the rabbits and badgers throw up some nice fragments of pottery and flint tools when excavating their wardens and sets. They're easy to spot as it's mostly chalk spoil. Always amazing to hold something really old that another human made. Thanks for taking us along. Be well.
Green with envy doesn’t even come close to how I feel. How lucky you both were especially Sean. My tip for oysters is spit them out lol. Really enjoyed this video thank you.
Lovely video! I'm so happy for Sean!!!! He seems like a very nice friend of yours, Si! You have several true friends, and it's great to see them!!! The joys you all show for each other's finds make your videos such fun to watch!!! Thank you!!!!
What an amazing find, for Sean! - thank you for showing us, Si! You guys really have some seriously, good fun, together! 🤣 I enjoy being on the sidelines... hello from Denmark 🌸🌱
Hey Sci! I really liked this video! I'm an old artifact collector and Flintknapper and really appreciate this. That first large utilized flake you found was beautiful! I love ALL of your videos but stone tools are my passion. Thanks!!!
Those 6000 year old flint tools, worked bits and the magnificent arrowhead point are just stunning. The piece of iron age pottery was an excellent find as well. If I went out there, I'd be searching every day for a month and not get tired of it for an instant.
Love this! Congrats on the beautiful finds. I love that the various Native American blades I've found in California are the same as what was being made by the early people in so many parts of the world. So far apart geographically, but so many parallels.
Congrats to Sean on his leaf shape arrowhead. I wish I had known what to look for when I was a kid on the family ranch. We had Flint Hill that was covered with flint. We knew there had to be arrowheads because it was the perfect area of Texas. Alas, that part of the ranch was sold.
Those are some awesome finds. That Dart point is wonderful. I miss the days when I was a teenager walking the fields where I grew up picking up Native American Artifacts. Thanks for sharing another great adventure Si!
my 1st stone tool find was by far my best. and i found it entirely by happenstance! was playing with my friends running around in one of my grandpas fields when i tripped. and there about 4-5 inches from my nose was a 3.5 inch spearpoint or knife blade! it was on a little mud pedestal because it had rained recently and washed the surrounding dirt away from it. needless we all stopped playing and spent the next few hours searching for more lol. didnt find anything more that day.
I'm liking the wordplay Si, right up my street! Haha! And Steve's arrowhead is amazing, textbook example I should think! 👊👌 I didn't get chance to show Sean the rocks I showed you, before he left, wish I'd of asked you to take with you now! Hopefully show him next time!
What a buzz to find those ancient tools!! Don’t think I will ever look at a piece of flint the same way. Thanks for sharing your mudventure and Sean’s knowledge.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SI! My Dad just turned 90 on the 17th, not sure if quite the same as you -hope you had a great day & a Super Mucky Year to come!! With LOADS of FUN! 🎂🎂🥇🥇🎂🎂🥂🥂🦘🦘🙋♀🙋♀🐾🐾🐔🐔🐱🐱🥂🥂👍👍🍻🍻
WOW! Shaun!! A perfect intact example of an Arrow Head!!! You guys have done Amazing but that Arrow Head?!! Come on!!! Loved watching this!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💗💗
Fantastic adventure! Congratulations on your find Shawn; it's a beauty! Si, your 2 blade finds are wonderful too! And, the Beaker shards ... awesome too!
What a great item to find. Nature gives us everything we need to survive and when you think of it, they didn't have razors to shave with so they looked around and found this rock very suitable for the job, brilliant!!😃 Great finds!!☀️🌊
The arrow head is gorgeous! Mmm grilled oyster. That looked delicious. In Pennsylvania, I'm used to eating them fried. Loved going out on the flats with you two!
This is wonderful to see - congratulations to you and Sean on all your finds - especially the arrow head! It makes all the effort of not only the day but potentially months and years of searching. The history there is phenomenal. Can’t wait to hop across the big pond from Nova Scotia to do some “real” mudlarking! Can’t wait!!
Thanks for watching Mudlovers! Why not watch the one where we almost died! th-cam.com/video/cmL5fgD6R4Y/w-d-xo.html 👍🏻🐾🧡
That small blade for shaving
Beautiful finds!
I did watch it close call
That point is just exquist. Whoever knapped that was a master knapper. Not much could top that except Beaker culture point with a long dainty tail on one side only. Then you'd really have to write home about. Very nice point and blades none the less!
@@donteague614 I did get one of them very next time I went.. ! :))) Oblique type arrowhead. Plus a further leaf shaped arrowhead.
Given one such a connection to people 6K years ago...people with the same concerns in life we have, for food, shelter,protection etc. Best video yet. Thanks for this.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
You don't need a magnet. Very interesting, all the different places and things you look for! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Really? their lives so so distant from an average ^resent day urban dweller who wanders down to the corner shop and has a refrigerator and instant heat cooking appliance in their home.
Speak for yourself!
You've taken me down memory lane with the Mussels and Oysters!
My late Dad and me used to collect Winkles, Mussels, Cockels if there had been a rough sea and sometimes Oysters on a Sunday morning to take home and cook for our Tea. Dad used to leave the Oysters in salt water changing it everyday for seven days before eating them and I can still very vividly remember how long to cook winkles, heavily salting them in water first to remove the grit etc and the smell of freshly cooked Seafood with lashings of bread and butter, vinegar and pepper and a hot mug of tea.
Thank you Simon for taking me back to those moments of my childhood. My Dad passed away 13 years ago and memories like this with looking for driftwood and building a little fire to heat our cans of soup up whilst we were collecting seafood. These memories are worth more than anything else in the world to me.
Thank you x
Thank you for sharing your beautiful memories.
@@karinberonius8799 Thank you!
@@maarinabudd 😊
Aw what a lovely memory. Thanks for sharing x
Yes, we used to do a lot of searching for shellfish when I was a child. The big cook ups and the feast with vinegar, pepper ( plus big slices of buttered vienna loaf) were indeed memorable.
Whoa!!! The person who made that arrowhead was an ARTIST-beautiful find, that is! I’m stymied!
Us too!
Stunning. Absolutely stunning!
The close up of the arrowhead was so beautiful. Congrats for a great find Sean
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡

I've been hunting artifacts in Oregon since I was 4. I have seen you and Nic walk over SOOO many worked pieces! Yet I can't see a coin 90% of the time. It's all in how your eyes are trained.
Hi Barbara. I'm a rockhound from Nevada and have thought the same thing. Wait! Wait! Artifact!
My eyes are trained for artifacts that you find in a typical dumpsite and I can spot one a mile away. I've wanted to find an arrowhead since I was a kid but don't know what I'm looking at when I'm comes to chips and bits and pieces. I find it interesting how we have trained ourselves differently.
that is so true Barbara.
I love Oregon!! In 1991 we went to Cannon Beach and stayed the weekend. We live just outside of Vancouver BC. Our baby did his first roll over there. Great memories. Enjoy!!☀️🌊
Gorgeous find! Incredible workmanship. Seems every day we realize more and more how skilled and cosmopolitan our ancestors really were.
Indeed! Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡

Sean's point was beautiful. Larger points like that are usually considered to be knives or atlatl dart points over here. A section of antler works better that a rock for controlled flint knapping
So often people think America has no old history. We really, really do as projectile points are not rare at all. (At least not in Kansas)
Antler's great for final edge finishing and resharpening or touching up. Knapping is an artform in itself. 👍
I picked it up a few years ago, and started off by practicing on the bottoms of beer bottles and other bits of broken glass. Took me 3 months to make a viable point in the form of an arrowhead 🤣
The flints are such works of art, it always amazes me how beautiful they are. And finding some beaker pottery is so cool too!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Fascinating! Sean is always looking for incredible things, gold, flint. Thank you. I really enjoyed this.

Hopefully show him next time!
Hi Ray. Ah yes, you were too keen to get detecting! We’ll be back 🤜🏼🤛🏼

Best ever
Oooh nice! Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
What a great item to find. Nature gives us everything we need to survive and when you think of it, they didn't have razors to shave with so they looked around and found this rock very suitable for the job, brilliant!!😃
Great finds!!☀️🌊
The arrow head is gorgeous! Mmm grilled oyster. That looked delicious. In Pennsylvania, I'm used to eating them fried. Loved going out on the flats with you two!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
This is wonderful to see - congratulations to you and Sean on all your finds - especially the arrow head! It makes all the effort of not only the day but potentially months and years of searching. The history there is phenomenal. Can’t wait to hop across the big pond from Nova Scotia to do some “real” mudlarking! Can’t wait!!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
