Heh, Brent I really appreciate you taking the time to present the abraders and polishers for arrows to lodge poles. I hadn't seen any of the large grooved tools before and the arrow shaft lip style are new to me also. I spend a lot of time on horseback and I found an encampment site today with three ponds and creek and I need to get my hip boots out and get back their soon. Thanks, again!

Brent I think you are spot on as usual. I also believe that the knew about flame temperment. They knew that heating the shaft and polishing the shaft would also water proof the wood and also give the wood strength.
Sure they did.Primitive doesn't mean stupid. The ancient Mayans and contiguous cultures knew that lightning strikes made common stone become magnetic.we forgot a lot of knowledge when we became civilized

Nope. Most (likrly all) of those are clearly not "artifacts". . . or certainly could not be proven as such. Look like interesting, polished river rocks at best. Rocks literally were formed and eroded into all shapes and sizes and colors. None of these seem to show any indications of worked/created stone tools or effigies. . . . This is not how we identify native artifacts.

@@bloodnthuner Ive been around. . . i know what I'll find: lots of neat rocks naturally formed or sculpted and shaped into any and every form imagineable, as nature does. I might get lucky and find an actual projectile point or axe/celt or mano or matate stone. . . . What you're finding is something you want to see/find, not something that was created by bored natives thousands of years ago.
@@campland2880 Well its a shame you think that way then. I used to only look for knapped artifacts until I realized I was passing up stone tools that have been heavily polished and worn. You should expand your knowledge and learn what makes them different from just river rocks.
@@bloodnthuner Not really a shame. . .even though I enjoy entertaining my imagination. To find something that looks like a polished tool, with interesting fracture lines amongst a million other polished (river, etc) rocks, without any context or site-specific connectivity, is just imagination. I like facts. . . . If these polished rocks were found at a site, or in a place outside of where you'd certainly expect them, then you'd have something to seriously consider. Otherwise, they are just curious, natural rocks smoothed out by erosion and pressure, and fractured naturally. Highly-polished celts, sink stones, slingstones, effigies, manos, metates, bola stones, cup stones, chunkey/discoidal stones, "de-barkers", and even very polished projectile points no longer showing pressure flaking (old and eroded!), gastroliths, and some beautifully round stone balls (like big marbles), etc. . .all clearly made by man and which have been found at many well-documented sites. There is direct connectivity. There is dislocation (a flat grinding stone found in the grasslands, and not in a creek bed). No imagination needed to see or try to undertsand their use or the "faces" supposedly etched into them (a lion on one side and an human on the other, and a bird if you turn it upside down, etc). Do what you want, see what you want. . . but don't expect them to be appreciated (by others) for what you want them to be. Could a native at some time used them for what you see them as (de-barker, etc). . .sure i suppsoe it's possible. . . but that's such a massive stretch and fully umproveable.

Hi brent, love your videos.. i live in mo. Near ozark. Im new to this game and havnt found much yet but some broken points.. can you give me any advice on hunting these creeks in mo.. tons of flint but its hard for me to tell whats natural flint flakes and native worked flint flakes. And also best place to look along creeks.?? Thanks for your videos.😊
They are not geofacts. Indians are like the people now a days both of our races are always looking for the easy way out and these most likely were found by a Indian looking somewhat needing a little more work to be used as a tool. Not every tool was totally converted into a tool just from a blank rock. The Indians always kept their eyes looking for rocks or geofacts you are calling them that needed the least amount of work to be used as a tool. I really can't understand why everybody thinks that all artifacts were made from a blank stone. And here is another aspect 85% of all Indian rock artifacts came from around rivers and the Indians lived along rivers and for 1000's and 1000's of years these Indian Villages suffered from floods washing away there lives and their stone tools so many of these tools would get washed down stream and lost and for 1000's and 1000's of years these tools suffered being sandblasted with sand, pebbles and rocks that altered many of them into looking like geofacts. This what I can't understand why all these wannabe you tube archeologist who can't understand this simple aspect about the past lives of Indian and the Caveman stone age times people of the past lived many more years than we did in the stone age era and used stone tools for millions of years before us. So Matthew what field of expertise are you because it seems you have a lot to say about these tools.
I think the fouth one is also an eagle effigy. Many that i have collected have dual images or are all function and dual purpose, almost like it was incorperated at a time when such ideas were unknown and were possibly made to share a new concept of multiple uses or images in one creation. Regardless of detractors and nonbelievers of alternate theories reavealing an obviously obfusgated past, mine is based on what i can see and touch rather than conjecture. i have more evidence than can possibly be refuted. Just for starters, Ive collected probably over a thousand small hand held representations of serpent heads. Including hooded vipers resembling Cobra and constrictors.. neither which are native to where i found them.. here in Washington state. And almost all of them have small indentions for grip and when you orient them accordingly a serpent is facing outward. And after a dozen or so.. its a little creepy and unnerving but after hundreds im thinking they were made with the intent of showing them to others for whatever reason. Of course there is zero interest from any academia but i keep them in hopes of them opening up and expanding their parameters for mankind and our timelines and since my realization they were wrong.. that very thing is slowly happening.
@@brentkuehne435pretty sure ive never claimed to be an expert at anything in life. I was merely trying to share in an open conversation what modern academia may have missed but i knew better ...so second thought, im probably an expert at receiving shit from stangers since thats all i ever get now literally since my community harassment has ramped up to include online activity now too and goes past the daily physical intrusions and attacks i handle every single day now and apparently its now going to include 100% of my comments and shares on youtube. Once again i know better than share my perspective on anything as the victim whos being harassed by so many bottomfeeders in hopes of forcing me to commit the ultimate act of cowardise. They waste their sorry assed time though and that will never happen. So good job to all the immoral sadists out there intent on me ending my life, a complete stranger whos done absolutely nothing to bad to anyone but apparently you all find it necessary to collude in my destruction and anything i do or say for no reason at all. Such pillars of integrity.. What a wonderful future you all must envision for your kids.. to try living through this garbage that yall are doing to innocent people. Let alone survive it. And yet im so naive that i still pray for you all.
Sorry, I was making a reference to people like academia and others who claim to be experts in pre history. If they claim to be so, they are just fooling them selves. There is so little we know about pre history cultures, yet some claim to know all. I get criticized often for misleading people with my videos. I have been doing this for a long time and probably know the local pre history cultures in my area better than anyone. I stated what my friend said. What I tell people is I know what I know, and I know what I don't know, which is a lot! I hope you have a good day. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding

I make canes and walking sticks using the actual tools, from chert blades to a large variety of stone tools. Some for making convex surfaces or smoothing knobs.Slow, labor intensive sure. But once you do it the old ways, you can recognize artifacts that you might normally miss.Only problem is history is damn heavy,hard to move

After you remove the bark, you can't straighten the shelf.

These are infact tools. I recommend doing some research and go out to creek beds and see what you find.

Do you ever find an Arrowhead
Only a few bassalt
Not at these river sites. I do find them at camp sites not far from the river. Vice-versa, I find very few tools at camp sites.
