all right I'm gonna walk down the shore in this one it's raining it's been raining and I got my shifter but I'm not seeing many flakes but I'm seeing some I'll see if I can come up with something here I'm only going to walk this for about an hour see if I can come up with an ancient Native American artifact of some kind of I think I got something nice here I don't know what this is look right here that looks like an amazing piece of rubbed hematite oh my goodness this is this is probably one that's not correct it's some kind of adult handle weight oh man look at this thing that's really stylized I've got another piece that's real I think these rattle handle weights it's as heavy as lead and that would give that and this is an old site man this this site has Auto adults that are nine thousand years on build on it and you look at this see all this stuff the fired rock this is the base clay but now look there's iron there's glass there's salt glazed Crocs there's there's more Old Brick I'll have to come in here moldy Tech too but this is a day maker and a half that is a b I'll show you with this is awesome I wouldn't expect them to find something I wasn't even gonna walk down here and just just a little bit of rain and waves wash this off see there's another piece of a salt release Croc right there look at the ground here man this is a good find for walking it's raining it's early in the morning look at this look at these I don't see there's more salt glazed Crockery deer sticking out there's more Old Pottery see look at the brick I'll get back man that's a good fun food all right you see the cover of that frame this is stuff from like 2019 I found on my channel but you get into all these weird pieces of hematite look at this one right here that's some kind of weight just the form of it see it and it you see the form on this now you come in here this is why I got this Frame out say you're getting that's not a paint stain and you get into some of these pieces and they start looking alike and I think these are adelato handle weights and I think this is a year maker fond you know not all these are the paint stains will be exhausted right there's an exhausted paint stain these bigger pieces this stuff has the weight of lead I have a nicer one even I found recently probably the nicest one of all in a frame of my up my mother house and I'll get it out next but you can see what I'm talking about here this piece today is incredible it's as good as any piece in here it's real nice hematite look at it wow very stylized looking look at that I don't I don't handle weights what I think put in the comments what you think but I'll see you another one too later all right you saw this piece and these other pieces that I found in the past here's some more stuff from the past here and I'm finding these hematite pieces around these serrated early arcade darts um here's another one that I found recently and it's a more stylized one but you can see that's new pink stain and of course that's kind of an effigy form maybe but that's just speculation that's a very stylized one there probably the nicest one ever I'd say these are out of waddle handle weights and that's just incredible to me that I found one of these laying out all the sifting I do and I go find this laying out that's a month maker this stuff you know hoop for one of these a year no wow I think nice color that's a beautiful artifact later right in here where I found that see this is the bass clay see these little divots on it how all the artifacts the the stuff's laying in that little divot I'm looking for the bigger divots this is what I'm looking for when I'm sifting is these pockets on the base clay and I'm looking for the ripples that are really holding the stuff but you can kind of see it here see all this there's the brick look here in these little see you wanna even a little hand scratcher see there's another artifact a piece of stoneware you can use a little hand scratcher and just look through this stuff on the shore and find all kinds of stuff it's just as good a system scratching with a hand rake just being real easy you can even do it with your hands just got to be careful especially the one that six Bays like this hey all right see there's more stoneware this looks excellent I already got one nice artifact and I wasn't expecting to find nothing this looks good all right I walked out on that two miles it's just probably now eight o'clock in the morning I'm gonna go home there ain't really much since the shift here I didn't let's see she uh all that looking a pretty big stretch I only picked up a few flakes of Flint I see a few tiny slivers out but there's Crooksville two pieces not much but I got an artifact so see this here this is pretty good if you're just starting to sift them to listen to me see this stuff this is all just straight River gravel like you get at a sand and gravel company the trade has no significance whatsoever most beaches don't have this but some of them do like we're a creek Channel run out or the rivers change course and there's old sediments this place has this gravel down deep but you get in the layers above the gravel and it's Sandy and the AirHeads are coming out above the gravel there's a gravel layer in the bank here and the layers above the gravel have cracked up red fired Rock full of artifacts but once it gets down this slant into this gravel that's also coming out of the bank it's real hard to sift in this gravel you want the sand with the fire rock in front with a lot less gravel I can find points here but chances are once they get into this gravel they're going to be busted up once you get up here say you start seeing the base clay see how there's way less gravel up here this is a rock an ancient me and see how it's been heated it's got fractures and it's not been heated a lot but it's been heated some anciently these two pieces have you can see there's no gravel this is where you'll find the Airheads the nice ones like after a rain you might see one just barely exposed laying right there in this little runoff see this little runoff here you want to look all this stuff real good you want to look on the side of this up here that could hold something right there see there's another rock right out of encampment I don't see nothing else but this is what you want to look see right there up in there where the stuff's falling out of you can see more fired Rock there this is what you want see how nice this stuff looks framed up here's a few of my last few points I found on video a knife there in the middle and now that adoato hematite weight check that out that's a nice display [Music] um
