Wow! What a great educational video! Glad to see someone that loves doing their hobby and sharing it with us you treat your audience nicely and I appreciate that!!!!
This is definitely worth the wait! Amazing Axe! I opened my phone at 7am cst and while being thankful for the time change l, saw your upload was around 1am. I was so excited and then realized that it had already been seen 222 times before me!!! That is what you call a following! Love the way you go from river to woods, give a little history and then back. Keep these coming!!!
10 minutes before I watched this latest drop , I was going through my dad’s office and found in the back of a filing cabinet 4 stone axes that look exactly like the one you found! What an eerie coincidence. In the 70s dad worked For Navajo truck lines in Denver, Colorado, and he and the other officers made several trips to the Navajo reservation. They were gifts. I’m sure Rocky would agree. ( and tell him hey 👋 ) the universe is alive !!! You Da Mahn Scott !!
Congratulations, awesome finds, this is my 30th year artifact hunting and I’ve never found a grooved axe or Celt, my buddy found his first grooved axe last year on his property and it looked just like that, three quarter groove and he found a Celt right next to it, very cool, thanks for sharing, God Bless & GL&HH!!👊🏹
I just found your channel. You are so knowledgeable on identifying these ancient artifacts. I would love to do this! Thanks for sharing your knowledge! I’m a fan for life!
The odd looking airhead you found could be from two different civilizations thousands of years apart. Indians also found broken arrowheads in creeks like we do was probably damaged so they made it easy repair and used it so, in other words, you were like a third-party to find that arrowhead. Good hunting awesome find keep up the good work.
I live along the mighty ohio and my mind just started to wonder... the edge of the river,isn't the edge of the river.. this is the new edge.. the dams raised the river, making the true edge further out,so you're digging the places they camped and lived.. sure,a bunch of stuff gets dragged into the river now from flooding,but there's a lot in the river,only if you could dredge where it hasn't been dredged
In the 70's i lived less than 3 miles from Cahokia Mounds in Illinois and we would find several artifacts just by digging a few feet down in our yard. We put an above ground pool in with a stretch liner so we had to dig down that's when we realized we were on an ancient camp site.
I'm a little late to the party on this one, Clegg. As always I'm incredibly inspired by your work! Right now we have some rivers that are REALLY low with exposed sand & cobbles. It would've been ideal for me to go out on a hunt before we get a good hard freeze. (It's surprising it hasn't already since we normally have snow starting to stack by the 10th of this month.) Unfortunately there's not any hunting in the near future for me, my friend. My back started giving me grief about a month before my trip to visit my sister back in early July. It didn't get better, it just kept getting worse, so I finally had it checked out. My back is bad, Clegg, looks like 4 bad discs in my lower back & although they're going to try cortizone injections they aren't real optimistic that it's going to solve anything. I'm probably going under the knife & given how many they plan to work on there are a lot of opportunities for stuff to go wrong. Seems my dream to go out hunting like you has once more been thwarted...
I had the same thing in my neck. Had a fusion. My friend had the lower back fusion, he’s had no problems. You get healed up and youll be searching soon.
@@cleggsadventures For you it was the neck? The missus had that done twice. She has two functional discs in her neck now & lost almost half an inch in height! She might also be going under the knife now for her lower back; The poor thing. They say married couples come to resemble one another but it's not so cool when both of you require similar surgical procedures or medical care of other sorts! lol! I hope that it'll be as easy for me as it was for your buddy, with my lower back. I'm way too young to feel this dang old, Clegg! The only gripe I have besides that is again, it's because of the drought we've had that I would even have access to local river bottoms. I've mentioned before that we have dense, rich, clay soil here, since we live on the ancient lake bed of Glacial lake Agassiz. Looking out onto the exposed river bottom of the Wild Rice River & seeing the cobbles is a very novel thing. I can only imagine that the clay is hard packed at the bottom, like there in the Ohio River Valley & this is all stuff that weathered out of the banks. I guess I better check my state laws before I do anything either way. I'm tempted to try & tough it out for a good scouting mission... I really wanna score my first point!
Dang Rocky is a real person. I always thought it was an imaginary friend. Cool finds. I believe in Alabama you can't disturb the river/creek banks to recover artifacts. I agree with you about recovering artifacts by the eroded shore not disturbing a archeology site. I use to get fussed at for picking up points in plowed fields. No one thinks that a plow scatters and destroys a prehistoric site as well. Thanks for sharing your adventures.
Clegg, would you consider a contest where the winner would be able to artifact hunt with you? Or could it be like a guide situation, pay your for your time/adventure?
For those watching in Indiana, be aware. I was in the river doing exactly this and the DNR came by. The guy was polite and professional. He asked what I was doing and I told him I was looking for arrowheads cause I am a honest guy. You cannot dig or disturb ground looking for artifacts here. I honestly did not know that. I got a written warning. Don’t get in trouble. Apparently if you see an arrowhead on the ground, you can pick it up, but you cannot dig or disturb ground looking. What a bummer cause it was a little of fun
@ I kind of feel like that was a crappy situation I was in. Like you said in your video, you are not disturbing any archeological site. Mother nature has taken everything out of their original context. Floods and so on have washed things out. You cannot really argue it, along the river bank is not the time or place. I was nice and complied with what he told me. In the end, I didn’t want any trouble over it. And I don’t think he really wanted to escalate it either, so I got a warning. I have went back to just looking for bottles 🙃
Beautiful grooved ax. They also used sinew to fasten the ax head to the handle. When sinew dries, it shrinks and makes a really tight bond to the handle.
maybe used as an a maul to split wood for a bow. Short wide broken on the back side. Makes you think doesn't it. Great little video. Thanks for sharing.
Lots of Karen and Kevin's out there with Law degrees and Bachelor's from UA-cam. It's good to know all the "erosion" you done is now fixed, thanks to the hundreds of miles of shore being eroded by those barge's on a daily basis. Perhaps a smaller shovel would make them happy. This hunt was a Grand Slam! Thanks for sharing.
I’ve watched many videos. Your enthusiasm and mannerisms are tailor-made for the camera and make the videos more enjoyable. One thing I’ve noticed is the sounding of your “O’s”, such as in the words “own” and “stone”. I realize you are in West Virginia but that “O” linguistic sounding is very characteristic of the Tidewater, Southern settlers from England-Scotland that remains prevalent in Eastern Virginia and Coastal North Carolina. Any link?
YOU'RE SOOO COOOOLLL!!!! I don't even care what that stinking ROCKY guy is telling all of us!!!! Lol. 😮😮. Thank you AGAIN buddy...still,,,#1 videos on that whole freaking UA-cam!!!!
👍 Yay, an axe head. Thanks for that little trip to the mountaintop, very cool. Have any archeologist's ever contacted you about that bow fragment you found?
Appreciate the clear audio, no drop outs( no crappy music), plus the different camera angles to keep it interesting, thank you for sharing!
