    We live by the Wisconsin river. I’m 13. In summer time I go out and look for arrowheads. I have found 3 Indian axes, 4 Indian clubs, hundreds of shards of pottery, 6 full or almost full pots/bowls. Over 150 arrowheads, and about 50 spear points

    Im from a location in Wisconsin. My family owns a creek and there is an old timer who has a collection of 2000 arrow heads. He picked them out of his plowed fields. The area I live was a winter camp for Natives. I am going down to the creek this spring.

      Chad Klaren when you know that you’ve found artifacts at a location or nearby, it makes it that much more exciting to hunt. I found a knife blade the other day right near where I started this video at my tiki bar. I posted it on Facebook and after a couple comments that it looked “natural” I took it down. Definitely not rock found near here and was a uniface and freshly broken probably by my truck tire

      Get some good water boots. Muck boots work well. I like going when it’s been dry out for a few days. Less running water. That’s the opposite than on land. The different color and shape of the points should stand out. Good luck. Let me know if you find any there. Thanks!

    I’m only a kid, but I am really interested in this type of stuff. A year or two ago I found a plant fossil and I thought it was so cool. Last year I went swimming in a big lake, and I found sticks tied neatly with string. I think it is an artifact since currently I live in the region of Narragansett (native Americans tribe) so I am positive it is some sort of fishing tool or something made by the natives.

We have the history but there is just not much stuff around that could be knapped(?) so apparently there was a lot of trading done up and down the coast on flints, agates and whatever. I can't imagine we had much to trade. Thanks for your time. I'm in Oregon for a couple weeks and I thought I had nailed down exactly. I knew where I was going even though I had never been there b4.
