WOW! Rare Blue Flint Celt, Other Artifacts Recovered From Remote Site Raise More Questions!

- This hunt finds us back in Lauderdale county with Al and his crew and
Mike with PineBeltRelics and our friend Will Lee on one of Al’s favorite permissions. It’s the site where Randy found the pre-form cache and just as before it did not disappoint. There were nine arrowheads, three drills, a flint celt and at least four other huge blades so there was no shortage of artifacts found. As with all sites there always seems to be more questions than answers and this one raises more than most. It seems to be a middle Archaic site with mostly Benton and Pickwick points but the oddity is the amount of huge debitage and all the huge hammerstones lying around. Could there have been an outcrop of TQ there and they were mining and spalling it off to make it easier to transport? Watch for yourself and let us know your thoughts in the comments. As always thanks for your support.

Good times and great vid Spike!! I’m glad you got footage of crossing that tree across the creek!! It’ll be good to be able to show my grandkids one day that while fat, I was still pretty daring and agile!! 🤣😂
lol I'll vouch for you Mike! You got those "Cadillac" reflexes! I would like to have gotten some more footage of crossing the tree. If Randy or Kenneth had been there and gotten down in the creek bed and filmed upward you could really have gotten the perspective it needed to show how high it is. Good luck to yall tomorrow buddy.
Some of us fat fellers have those Cadillac reflexes. Don't Rekon I have em 😂😂. Sweet Finds Fellers 😎👊
You guys are absolutely awesome, I vote you all start your own television show. Keep the videos coming
What a fun day. Always enjoy it when we get together. That site is awesome! Fun group Mr. Al has up there too!
You got that right Will on all counts. We really do enjoy being out there with all those guys. Some of the best arrowhead hunters that I know of too.
You guys are absolutely awesome, I vote you guys start your own television show. Keep the videos coming
Thanks. I truly believe the future of TV based entertainment is platforms like this.
Good to see you all back again. You were missed.
Thanks. It sure is good to be back out there.
I love your new intro!! Hollywood better watch out. The quality of your video is really impressive. We love watching you guys having so much fun. Your joy and enthusiasm is infectious!! God bless.
Thanks so much and God bless you and yours.
What's awesome is you all share your finds with one another and that blue on those peace's is beautiful
Thanks again so much.
As always enjoyed watching thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for the visit. Good luck up there and take care.
Awesome hot guys congratulations on your finds always a pleasure watching y’all🙏👍
Thanks Tim! We appreciate you buddy. Good luck up there.
Great video and great finds! Good to see y’all back in the saddle again and
Thanks Ron.
Glad to see y'all back
Thanks!
Awesome point’s and love the enthusiasm 👍
Thanks! 👍
Great day guys! The Celts were beautiful but so was everything else.
Thanks!
Glad to hear your family members are well!! You all found killer old artifacts. That snake was beautiful!! Take care and happy hunting.
Thanks. I appreciate that. Take care yourself and stay safe and healthy.
Glad to see you guys back! Neat drone shot at the beginning of the video btw and congrats on a great haul of artifacts!
Thanks guys. Funny thing about drones, for me anyway. I can shoot 15 minutes of video and get maybe 10 seconds I can use lol. Sometimes that's all it takes though. Good luck to yall up there and stay safe and healthy.
Great video! Enjoyed the hell out of it! Some amazing finds! Love the flint celt!
Thanks Jon! Glad you enjoyed it.
and good luck to you up there.
Wow what a good hunt !! To bad Randy and them had to miss out , I understand though . Thank you for sharing
Thanks! I sure miss Randy and Kenneth when they're not there.
Nice to have someone to identify what you fellas find. Broken or whole all unique.
It sure is. Mike is such an asset to us.
The only thing keeping me sane(kinda) is that the crappie have been hungry, almost all my best sites have been tilled up and rowed up for next year and so dry and dusty your feet sink down in it like mud and fill your shoes up with dirt crumbs. Finally we got a better than slight chance of rain for the next coupla days and I plan on walking till my feet give out then resting them sitting in my boat feeding jigs to slabs. Y’all found some great stuff once again, I’m hoping my year is half as good as last year and I’ll be satisfied, let it rain,let it pour, hand me my boots and don’t block the door! See Y’all
Thanks for stopping by and for the great comment. We wish you the best of luck my friend.
Killer day in the dirt again . I got a chance to dig over in Southwest Alabama a few years back . I found a little side notched point almost identical to the one Will found . I thought it was broken but when I got it cleaned up it was blunted off . Cool Hog nose snake ! Only came up on one of them in 57 years .
Hey Cliff! I've only ever seen one two of them myself. Good to hear from you buddy. Hope to see you in Meridian in February.
Thanks guys
Our pleasure Mike! Thanks for watching.
Great weather and lots of artifacts. Life is good. Thank you Jesus indeed!! Thanks for sharing all the finds.
Amen! It's our pleasure Jack! Thanks for stopping by. GL&HH to yall up there.
Nice Vidayoo! Love the Blue Piece you found!
Thanks!
Great video brother...awesome artifacts
Congratulations
Thanks Scott! Continued good luck to you over there my friend.
Love the videos. Thanks for sharing~!
Thanks. It is our pleasure!
Spike, I think you and Will were on the honey hole! Prayers for Margie!!
Thanks Tim. We were on a hot spot for sure.
Killer finds as always stay safe out there
Thanks and you too my friend.
Awesome stuff!!! I was afraid someone was gonna fall off crossing on the sideways tree at the beginning. Glad you could piece that broken one back together in the sifter. And hell no to the big black snake!! Lol. Y’all stay safe out there! 😄👍🏻
Thanks and you stay safe and healthy yourself. Always good to hear from you! The video doesn't do the height of the log over the creek justice. Believe me lol.
Great finds!
I wish that material could be found here in north GA.
It is a beautiful and strong material when it comes out of the water but that acidic soil up there does a job on it. It makes it brittle and crumbly.
Special finds 👍Steve 🇬🇧
Thanks Steve. Take care over there my friend.
GLAD YOU ARE BACK!!
Thanks! It's good to be back. Hopefully we can all get back out together soon.
Nice job guys
Thanks Chuck!
Spike, I'm so glad you are all on the mend! Nice finds, that looks like a great multi-cultural site!💖
Thanks! We appreciate that. It is mostly a middle Archaic site but there is some older stuff such as the Kirk corner notch found occasionally. Always good to hear from you. Take care and stay safe and healthy.
Sure was cold here in Kentucky this murnin. Glad I had a HBR Hoodie to keep me warm. Anybody reads this comment needs to order some hoodies from HBR & PBR 😎👊
Thanks my friend. We do so appreciate your support.
Now boys that looks like more fun than a mosquito on mud bank! I would love to do that! 👌👍
You should! It is fun! Good luck!
.Good finds friends, if an archaic place where they covered a large area where at the same time it could have been a settlement and a hunting ground. Very interesting place. Here in the desert I have found places specifically such as settlements, others for hunting and others also with both activities. The different types of artifacts demonstrate this. Greetings to my friends, I really enjoyed this hunt.
Thanks! It is an interesting site for sure. There's just so many more questions than answers on this site. GL&HH my friend.
Boy that was a heartbreaker! I’m glad you guys getting out and having success… and Spike I’m glad that everybody’s healthy now.. take my friend
Thanks Jeff. Good luck up there and stay safe and healthy my friend.
Great finds Spike!!! Glad everyone is recovering!! Good nature shot!!
Thanks! I appreciate that.
Spike
Hot spot, great video
Thanks and thanks for stopping by and for leaving a comment.
AWESOME job guys no way I could take something nice from a buddy that dug it up lol you boys are hard core its funny lol we make up the rules as we go lmao great job guys happy for youns
lol He knew the rules going in. That is that we make them up as we go lol.
Glad to hear everyone has recovered from COVID. That is a killer site. Thanks for sharing with us!!
Thanks! I appreciate that. It's our pleasure to share.
Awesome day and great finds y'all, glad everyone is doing better 👍🏹
Thanks John. I appreciate that.
Spike
Are you sure once ya cross the log you were still in Mississippi or did you cross the vail and go back in time!!! I know what it feels to do so.... you go up then down one hill and travel down the ravine and zig zag into another and there, there, up on the plateau, no automobile sounds or no airplanes it is so quite that it like steppin' back to the days of your diggin's!!! Great work Gentlemen.... Hope for your love ones that they have no long term side effects because that has been the hot topic in my readin's, I have been doing....
Thanks Stan. It is like stepping back in time. We're praying for no long term side effects too. Thanks again and always good to hear from you.
The heart breakers are many for ya... BUT think of it another way... just maybe that heart breaker point was a trophy broke point that happened during a hunt! Feeding the tribe! Celebrate the broken!
Absolutely! The broken Greenbriar has an impact fracture that we didn't notice until later. Think of the story it could tell.
Aww that hognose was sweet. I don't get why people are so scared of snakes. Education on them helps relieve fears a lot.
Exactly! thanks for watching and for leaving a comment.
@@HeartbreakerRelics I'm glad you all are doing well now and I very much enjoy watching Yalls videos
Hog nose snake was cool have not seen one in years
Thanks!
Don't see many of those in Ky either. I've only seen 1 blowing viper in my lifetime. Plenty Rattlers and copperhead round here. I've been scorpion bit 3 times growing up..couldn't keep shoes on me 😂 yes there's Scorpion in Garrard co. Kentucky
Wow! A scorpion bite would scare me more than a snake bite lol.
@@HeartbreakerRelics it swells up around the sting and is sore for 3or4 days but don't make you sick. We've found them in our bathtub before. Little brown ones like 2to3 inches long
When i was about 9 years old and barefoot with short pants on i stepped right across one of these spread adders just like this one. It was in 3 inch tall mowed grass so I didn't see it till i had already stepped over it . I can tell ya that when I did see it and it flared its throat out like a cobra that I nearly uh huh !!!! Funny when my Dad saw it and just laauugghhed and laughed LOL funny to me now. Then NOT SO MUCH !
I know the feeling. I did the same thing the first time I saw one.
I heard it mentioned about a broken point being sent to be restored. Where exactly is that done? I have a dalton with a missing tip I want fixed
Email this guy and tell him what you have and send home some pictures. His name is Keith Etchison.kjmmetch@earthlink.net
And thankful you’re x - wife is doing so well
Thanks. I appreciate that Ron.
Spike
It looks like a lot of these have a calcium carbonate coating on them. Might you try a weak acid bath (vinegar??) to remove it and see the points clearly or will that detract from their authenticity?
That's just the material. TQ does that in this acidic soil. We have tried cleaning them with everything but nothing works.
⛪ God keep you safe and healthy out there ✝🙏⛪
Thanks and blessings on you too my friend.
@@HeartbreakerRelics 🙏
Spike, I thought turquoise was only found in the SW. Which state are you in? Pretty material!!
It's not turquoise. It's a very high quality Tallahatta quartzite. We are in Mississippi, right in the heart of Tallahatta country.
@@HeartbreakerRelics I know just a little about minerals. Is that quartzite mined at all or just found randomly possibly in veins? It makes for very nice arrowheads!
Any idea where this material that these great points were made from came from ? What area in the country ?
Yes this material came from right where we were digging. There are outcrops of it everywhere. We are confident at one time there was an outcrop that reached the surface and they were mining and spalling it off into smaller pieces in order to transport it somewhere else of for trade.
Nice points you guys, your wife's approved of you bringing all that cursed stuff home?
Randy, Kenneth nor myself (Spike) have wives so it doesn't matter lol.
Things come quietly in the night
@@HeartbreakerRelics You and Randy are single?! Gives all us old single gals hope that there are still some good men out there! 😉
@@theresanee why yes. We are single lol. There are a lot of good older guys out there unfortunately for some women most of them are in the woods all day hunting arrowheads or deer lol.
@@HeartbreakerRelics I've never hunted deer. But if I lived down your way I'd be out in the creek with you guys. The creek and the woods were my playground when I was a kid! 😁
Eastern hognose. Biggest drama queen of the snake world! Their favorite food is frogs! If they can’t scare the predator away , they play dead! You can not turn them back over once they play dead! They stay dead! LOL. Great nature moment Randy!!
Great artifacts everyone!!
You gotta love a hog nose! We've got some footage in one of our videos of one playing dead. Thanks for stopping by.
How do you pick an area or location to begin digging?
Thanks for watching and for the question. We look for high level ground just out of the flood plain close to a water source and then look for debitage.
So glad to hear everyone got over being sick. The covid went through our family as well but thank God we are all ok now. Great finds guys. One question how old do you all think the site is? Was it used by alot of generations of Native Americans? God Bless you all and just keep diggin and siftin.
Thanks so much! Glad yall made it through it too. The site is, as Mike says, a middle Archaic site which puts it at about 3000 to 3500 years old. Now, the Kirk point found dates to 8500 to 9500 years old but the vast majority of artifacts are from the middle Archaic period.
@@HeartbreakerRelics Thats really cool to find thoes artifacts
