- Stone artifacts found on the American Continent used by the Ancient inhabitants of the Americas including the American Indian. How to identify ancient stone tools by showing a pattern of craftsmanship commonly used by America's ancient inhabitants.
When I was younger I used to put items that didn't fit the perfect picture of an axe or arrowhead off to the side. Now I bring them home and after studying them realize they are genuine artifacts.
I now hang onto chips and check them out later at home. I once found a perfect small point that way. Glad I didn't toss it away. Found a primitive axe, tool today by the front porch where I had layed it down a couple summers ago. You could see the finger areas on it so could be used by hand too. Always learning, thanks!
Why did you never set and grout your tiles?
They look like the typical rock I use for flintknapping. The heavy top is used for direct percussion and the rounded tip is for pressure flaking.
It's a waste of time trying to convince someone with a closed mind and untrained or the uninformed. They just see rocks ..lol
😂 they are rocks bro.. Nobody wants to listen to the educated ppl.. Liter ally every rock on earth can look like something but someone who has a brain and knowledge can easily tell if it was worked and shaped into something... Ppl are so weird
There's obviously intent and nature doesn't make that same thing with certain shapes over and over
Who cares what they see ! We know what we see! That's all that matters ! Thanks for sharing!
I have been watching your videos today trying to wrap my brain around it as someone looking from the outside in. From the comments I have learned that people expect stone tools to be some elaborate task to create. They must believe that peoples walked around with a big heavy bag of finely crafted stone tools. I'm pretty sure, being nomadic, they probably made a lot of crude tools to use, and left them lay when it's time to move on, so you might be on to something. Spear heads, and arrow heads they take with them, and need to perform, so they will be more elaborate.
I am finding alot of the same tools you showed on your videos, everyone told me I was delusional, lol they have all of the things you described and showed.
Most don't get there's been many resets some tools were made long before chest tools look at artifacts chimps use when you need a tool many things work. I've also picked up perfect flint arrowheads and the outside flakes off leaving the shape but the glassy surface is gone
I wish I was more tech savvy so I could possibly show you what I’m mentioning here…
I am finding the same exact shaped artifacts in a desert in California.
I have three of them in my possession and they come from a site that only I know about right now.
It seems to me if the stones were shaped....they could have put an edge on the axe, or at least something that looks like an edge. Haft one of those and chop something with it. Im am curious, do u have an answer? I am interested in stone tools.
Rocks my friend. Not axes. Try cutting wood or a tree with this blunt and dull rocks.
These are just creek rocks,where I live you could fill dump trucks with these.
Those creek rocks have been shaped by man. You should review some of the literature on ground stone tools. Jenny Adams of Utah has produced a seminal paper on ground stone tools. Perhaps you can find someone to read it to you.
Ha. Rocks. Like in his head!
😂😂
Thanks for sharing! Truly amazing
these are all natural stones you should really educate yourself and do a little more research
I think you need to be educated because what this man has on this video is 100% legit.
Lol I work with Museum directors on helping them identify certain kinds of artifacts I am also a flintknapper and make hard Stone tools celts different type of axes plummets atlatl weights Etc made in the United States and South America so I do know what I'm talking about and have spent many thousands of hours researching and learning about real artifacts and how to identify artifacts it's sad when you can be fooled by some plain River Rocks
@@jacobbradenbaugh454 this man is a fool. I bet he isnt married or if he is his wife might be crazier than he is
Lol take your own advise
@@jacobbradenbaugh454 what if ur in an area with no flint?
Great tools! There are so many out there that people overlook them, dismiss them, but in actuality they are indeed stone tools👍
@Michayal Valder thats ridiculous
😂😂😂
Uhhhh Will? @3:16 if you pause, that stone looks to have a petroglyf above your hand at the top....It looks a bit like Kokopelli without the flute from here...In fact the whole stone seems to have some titanium based dioxide all over it. Then again, the stone is on UA-cam and maybe I am seeing things?
Scott I cannot tell. I could send you a better picture and see what you think.
Sounds Good!
Same things I've been collecting for 15 yrs. nice relief/carving btw on that one in the center. lay them out in the same directions,dim your lighting and use a flashlight from all side angles 360° < > to see the other things your missing. most of those knotches have a burnt polished area in the corner nook also, as if wood or a handle or sorts worn into the inner nook or pine tar. I have some with black coating. most of the paddle shape ones have a figure facing the larger inpacting area, check it out. most are ornamental I find and VERY....Very old and worn. they are found along side, newer... Arrow heads and pottery...So, I took some to a guy, A.G. at USC He said they were pre history and insignificant. I assume because they were not gleaming Arrowheads in his mind, it just doesn't count as anything lol. when you can get 30-40 of the exact same tool made from various materials it makes a valid point. after finding a small skull made of white quartz I started just looking for the reliefs. some look like earlier Egyptian type people with some simple hieroglyphs and head wear. makes me wonder if Native Americans desended via Egyptians.
j/s lol.
good eye Scott, its a profile of a woman ( holding a rosary?)
me too James, a single light source to cast shadows across the rocks, a candle is good too, some were made for viewing by camp fire and when you find those images they can be made to move a little by tilting the rock. This is a little known art form. Practically every race was visiting north America at one time or another in the past. Totem rocks are the most overlooked artifacts due to the unbelievable complexity of the work, overlapping images within images, a-symmetrical characteristics and negative images, or half negative and half positive. Often the images are elusive until the brain gets "tuned in ".
Sorry, bud - all of these are just plain old rocks.
Nice job! Stones were the first tools man used before technology advanced us. Mankind has built cities and destroyed them hundreds of times over. Stones last forever so imagine all the stone tools there are just scattered about that litterally have been around for thousands of years. I'm sure rock tools were mass produced as well and some even probly have trademarks from the craftsman like a special symbol to show what manufacturer made them. Majority of people say they are just rocks because they aren't wrong. Alot of these tools are made from a "template rock" which is a rock that is naturally found everywhere that nature does in deed shape. They take one of these rocks and then fine tune and shape into final product. When you hold one of these modified rocks its obvious that it was designed by man. They fit like a glove most of the time with little indents for your fingers to grip. You don't even have to be educated, anyone with anyform of intelligence can tell when something has been modified. Not only does the object look different, it carries an energy with it like any other handcrafted merchandise out there. You can just tell by the vibe. If you don't believe in vibes, well you probably won't ever then. Stay dangerous and always know your weapons before you have to.
so nice reading comments like this! i've collected some unbelievable things and some people still think i'm nuts - but i know what i'm holding in my hands is a priceless, ancient artifact. you're right about the energy, too! 🙌✨
How about some grout between your tile.
I found something 😮looks like those but with T at the top it's a foot long four inch T at top , black shiny with beautiful white ivory looking in it
Any idea what it might be
I don’t want to offend you, but those are all naturally forming rocks. If you don’t believe me, bang a few of them together and see them get all scratched up. Right now they are pristine rocks just as they were formed. Try it. Ton more reason why they are definitely just regular, but very cool rocks
people these are tools not every tool has to be museum quality or perfect Know that yet a lot of people will say oh I’m a collector for years upon years or I work with someone that deals with artifacts well 90% of the time their lies…just putting that out there most people aren’t expert’s even if they are collecting for years yet there’s still stuff to learn every day plus I bet most of you guys won’t believe me we’ll do your self a favor do so start learning new stuff.
A vivid imagination and apparently a lot of time to spend picking up geofacts.
I have one of these with finger ridgea
Yep good eye man.
Reminds me of my stones that look like potatoes collection.
I think there are people who think that ancient really ancient arrowheads and stone tools are to be perfect! They can't seem to fathom that they are very old!! And are tools.
No they r not watch a few different videos it's sad when people like this spread misinformation
@@jacobbradenbaugh454 naw its people like you who "think"they "know" everything. Probly part of some archeological society whos world would be flipped upside down if mainstream found out. These rocks have been around for a really really really fu king long time. Longer than mankind itself id assume. Now think of all the people who have walked this earth and think about all the time that mankind has survived without technology and electronics. Thousands of thousands of years using "rocks" as their go to for tools and weapons. Think about how many civilizations were built up just to be destroyed over and over and over. Way before we had the technological advances we have today which only have been around for 1%, if even that, of our entire existence here on earth. Fuk it, I'm above it and really don't have time to argue with someone who obviously just read someone else's opinion and then goes and spreads it around without any idea all to "riddicule" and bring down an individual whos passionate about what they are seeing through their personal observations. "Be careful what you write down or type because its more powerful than speaking the words, and equivilent exchange of energy comes into play and cosmic karma can really fuk your whole future up you silly guy. I'll "leverite" there with that. Don't be a dumb dick and think for yourself.
The top left stone, or the stone on the left at frame 7:12, does that have a cup like top? Like a nutting stone depression about the size or a little smaller than a tennis ball? If so, is there burnt pine pitch residue?
No Scott I looked at the stone and there is no indent at all and no burnt residue on it. This particular stone has me stumped though. It is so well crafted but for what I don't know. I do not see any thing on it that shows signs of use as a tool. That's what makes this fasinating trying to figure it out.
I totally agree Will, I asked about the indent and pine residue as I thought it may be a in-ground lamp, or to crush nuts without the worry of getting knocked over. I only have a couple in-ground lamps at about 6 inches tall, and thought that would be a bigger one. Thanks for replying back!
Hello from California......wondering if I can email you about subject of stone tools.
Hi also from California,
Gosh I want in on this also. Please may I email you also? About stone tools of course.
Just rocks again... have you ever been to a museum, looked at excavated artifacts, taken a class or read a book on the topic? The amount of time and effort you take pointing out “distinct notching” or lining up imaginary angles is amazing. Your crazy man. I think I’m crazy for watching and feeling compelled to comment. Finely crafted? ....scientifically speaking those rocks are called Leeverite......as in leave it right where you found it because it’s nothing.
G-10
Those look natural
please stop with this misinformation
I'm sorry to make fun of you but for GOODNESS SAKE buy a book or go to a website ALL YOUR INFO IS IMAGINED. THESE ARE NOT ARTIFACTS. I have 40+ yrs experience in the field and 20 years of education on the subject. I've been in the woods, rivers and fields of Illinois and Missouri since I was 10. I know of what I speak.
100% agree.. It makes me angry and laugh at the same time
Thanks for the great information once again.
Lots of rocks you got there 😂
What a BS 😂 please, stop this nonsens!
First of all I couldn't concentrate because of the low quality needs to be redone tile floors making noise.
AND NO HE TALK WAY TO SLOW! NO!
Seriously I have a ton of the same and a bunch I bet you have not seen I know for a fact they are legit
Where are you finding them?
I have the same exact ones that I’m finding in California.
are they of any value? I have a couple of nice once from North Carolina.
No because they are just plain River Rocks and nothing else people like this need to stop spreading misinformation
Thank you for sharing!
Why aren't you grabbing some micro fiber cloth & mineral oil to expose the "hiding in plain site" art work on these stones? This will shut them up for good.
Have many..I have had the cheif of a local tribe look at them and they are artifacts.....People are stupid for thinking its a joke. Do your homework people
Modern day chiefs dont know shit about native american artifacts.
Was that Chief from the Navahomo Tribe?
Was that Chief Big Red!
Or Fullabull Chief!
Most of those are teeth
rock collection
You're tripping man
Such big headed egotistical haters, they are clearly stuck in their own neck of the woods. Haters need to get outside more!
Or you need to do some better research
I found one of these in the Great Miami River in New Baltimore, Ohio. (Just west of Cincinnati). When were these made?
Please stop misinforming people. These are not shaped or crafted or notched or anything else you claim. Sorry,but you have no idea what you are talking about. The world does not need any more BS like this. Stop! Please!
THANK YOU
J’ai trouvé plusieurs de ses arc t’effaçât
This is a joke right? There isn't a single artifact in this video. Wow. Just wow.
😂😂😂
Teepee tent pegs
This is a joke right?
B
Your VERY UNEDUCATED DO SOME RESEARCH STOP EMBARRASSING YOUR SELF AND SPREADING FALSE INFORMATION NONE OF THOSE ARE AXES LET ALONE ARTIFACTS
Although it's primarily based on Ohio types, Google " Robert Converse- Stone Tools of Ohio", it will help you see what are universally recognized as stone tools., which will spare you some flak from some of the critical comments jokers make on your videos. Artifacts often fall within one of 4 categories...1-for sure,no doubt. 2-maybe,could be. 3-inconclusive. 4-no way..
bwahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaha
