I live in the Lehigh Valley. I'll definitely have to keep my head down when I'm out and about. Not just because I want to be anti social. Thanks for sharing part of your amazing collection.
You identified them correctly Chick. Ive knapped that jasper a few times. Knaps awesome especially after heat treating to 400 degrees. Get a fanmail P.O.Box ill send you and the kiddos some of the peices ive made and some real artifacts. The flake scars are what I love the most. Each flake is unique and 1 of a kind. Like fingerprints 😎🏹🤙
Those are awesome! I've collected many stone tools and arowheads on my walks and hikes along creeks and rivers. I'm always looking down to the ground as l move along a forest floor. Keep adventuring and exploring! Stay safe and well!
Hey again Emily. I really don't know squat about the artifacts such as you share but it looks like I'm gonna be learning. You clearly give your heart to all of your interests and also have a fair amount of knowledge about all your share. Cool! Good night.
Amazing. Love the collection. I’ve got a half amethyst geode about 9in across that has tourmaline and gold flecked in it, I didn’t find it though I paid good money for it but I still display it! I didn’t know your name, until in these comments people said you were an Emily. Fits perfectly, a lovely name.
I grew up in Moundsville, WV. Moundsville is home to the worlds largest cone-shaped indian burial mound. It was constructed by the Adena indians.The Delph Norona Museum sits at the base of the mound. It houses a lot of artifacts as well as information about the Adena indians. You can walk up to the top of the mound by a series of large stone steps. Directly accross the street from the mound is the old WV Sate Pennitentary, constructed in the mid 1800s of huge stone blocks. The prison also has regular tours. Check them both out sometime. I'm sure you would find it interesting. God bless you.
Those are really pretty artifacts,and i agree in some places i feel a very strong connections to my ancestors so I think you are spot on saying and feeling that way,i think alot of people may have that gift but just aren't into exploring and nature so they never let their true deep connections come to the surface i think if people understand it more they would probably be trying to make their connections
Hello, I enjoy your channel. I grew up in rural Ohio and was raised as a feral child running the woods fields and streams. I’ve found many ancient artifacts and have learned to date them. The black one looks like a preform of Coschoton Ohio flint. … also ..
@ It’s the best education one can ever get… It teaches self learning and connection to the natural world…. keep enjoying life and sharing your experiences
@@PACreekWalker you’re welcome… I’m 65 now but I have experienced many things weird wild and wonderful in my life here in NE Ohio…. Trust in yourself and be who you want to be… ZI have done archeology digs under rock shelters and found an an early Archaic site in the farm fields behind where I grew up.

@ You can use google maps to look at creeks streams and rivers to see ancient trade routes off native people. Many times small side streams up above flood plains were good settlements. I used to think … where would I live if I was camping for a year or season..
nice collection. My brother's in laws own a dairy farm near the Sacred Oak in Oley and often let me search for on relics like arrowheads. Alot gets dug up when they til the land.
The Lanape Delaware peoples, before the white devils arrived. Nice find ! Spear point missing flute at bottom, probably lost before it could be finished, nice find anway, may want to revisit sights for further discoveries 👍
The last point maybe 10k. End of ice age anyway. That seems around the right time that high ground may have been utilized. One can only imagine. One of the greatest things a person can do is take a handful of random points. Make a xerox on a copy machine. Flip all the pieces so you have both sides in real scale. Then the Imagees can be saved . Analogue pages in a binder . The copy mach.has a great way of showing the nuances . I adore how motivated you are in sharing your time , and of course, thank you.
Those are beauty's ! Glad you shared your favorite artifacts with us. I can sence how special those are to you and that is good. The large Black looking chert I believe is a Paleo knive, 10000 - 8000 B.P. (Before Present) A very nice find indeed. I agree with you about the Ryolite heads being dull looking, but still very cool. Lol That Jasper arrowhead is stemmed. I have a hunch is heat treated because it shines like glass so ? The color is so incredible. It appears to be a Scottsbluff II Late Paleo, 9500 - 7000 B.P. point, but I am speculating some there ? Also, look at Alberta and Hardin arrowheads. You are lucky to have eye's colored like that point. 🙈 Thank you for sharing and have great week ! A shout out for the Pixies, from Boston, MA 1986 - Present.
@PACreekWalker Yes, the heat treating allows for easier knapping and sharper edges. The drawback is those heat treated heads break easier too, as the stone gets brittle from the heat treatment.
Dear Young Lady: I don't think you or your family are weird. You ae perfectly normal. The large black point was used for war and killing in battle. The other two points were used in hunting animals of large size. There were smaller points for small animals and even smaller ones for bird hunting. I ama an old man now but in years past I knew some Creek Indians in Alabama that I learned a great deal from. I use to have a great collection of points, including spear heads and axe heads and some original pottery. I still have a few arrowheads and one piece of a breast medallion that I have held on to. Most of my good points I sold or traded through the years, like a dummy. Sometimes when you are young you do stupid things. Bruce Howard, MG
@ailenepace8262 thank you for telling me the uses. It doesn't tell me all this in my book. Knowing this information, makes me look at each piece in a different light
Wow, those are great finds! Is that black stone the Adena knife is made from local to you? That jasper piece is sweet, that is some shiny, slick stuff. Do you think it's heat treated or does it come like that? Those shaped ones are a lot harder to identify and it could be a tiny detail that IDs them. A flaking pattern or style, or the shape of the notches. I liked the story about digging the rhyolite one. Digging is hard, and slow. I think you did great, I've dug sometimes more than that and found nothing. When they take that much effort they mean more and you won't forget where you found it. I'd say you were in a good spot, and I would want to try the top of the ridge in a flat or saddle area. I have had just as good or better luck on the ridges as in the shelters. I get that feeling almost everywhere that I find artifacts that was occupied for any length of time
@jeffphillips73 I would normally say the shiny pieces are heat treated, but usually that changes the color. This piece has no color change, which is very interesting, but I believe you are correct
I love your arrow heads. When you said you are in Lehigh Valley, I was shocked as my family is in Berks County. We are neighbors. Our name is Dreibelbis. Are we related by chance ? We have been there since 1739 or there abouts. Happy New Year.
The first point is too big / heavy to be an arrowhead. It is probably an atlatl point. Atlatls were hand held short spear throwing devices used by paleo-indians up until about a thousand years ago, after which the bow & arrow predominated.
Add an email in your description I have a couple arrowheads I got from a friend of mine years ago I'm from the Sunbury area I'm pretty sure they're from this area I will send you pictures of them you can give me your take on them then.
