Thanks for the support!

@@brentkuehne435 u bet buddy

my first find was a tomahawk then a snake head made of like 3 colored chert flint jasper something....SOOOO polished and smooth! Cheers!

I know exactly what you are speaking of I have several of those and a video of one that I found that actually looked like a snake laying in front of me

@@barrykeyes2646 Last year my granddaughter was hunting in a nearby creek with me and found a flat rock in the shape of a horse head. It is the only one I have ever found. I also have a flat rock in the shape of a human head that has a hole in it for an eye and the mouth looks like it was carved. Both of those rocks are kept up on my fireplace mantel.

👍

I know exactly what you mean. I have some of the snake head stones. The best example I found shows the fangs all curled up and you can even see the venom chamber!

I am I. The same situation. I’m always on the hunt/lookout for points and or stone tools. And when I find a good one in my opinion no one else seems to see what I see. That being a old stone tool. Wish o could have a professional or someone with some experience/knowledge take a look. And confirm the fact that I’m not crazy and they could most likely be a ancient tool.

You are half correct.

Ok have noticed it an I’m sure you all have also. What is it with all the pictures that is on these tools.

@@clydemclerran3885 I have just started collecting, and have multiple stones with just 2-3 figures/faces/ petroglyphs on them. Also, some may have a row or two of petroglyphs. Then, I found several totally covered with these tiny petroglyphs. Mine are on several types of STONE love them! What have you found?

Yes sir

Thanks for the comment. We have several occasion's but are not run by the state. I hate using the word expert, and I would never call myself one, but I probably know as much about the tools and the cultures that used them in this area of Ga. than anyone. Unfortunately, tools are a grossly under studied area of archaeology. Although I do find artifacts from all periods, these are mostly late Archaic early Woodland period, most Mississippian culture. They were almost 100% agrarian and many of the tools were used for that purpose. However, the exact purpose for many tools can be hard to determine.

@@brentkuehne435 perfectly said Brent 👏 🙌 👌 💯

Yep, they are stones!

Bogtrottername 7001, stuff your jealousy in a box. and leave it at home🤗

Exactly.

@@brentkuehne435 geofacts.I have seen weird shaped stones like that by the thousands on field excursions.People have brought every kind of imaginable rock to my departmental office thinking they had found whatever thier imagination could conjure up.I about fell over when I saw your " duck effigies".

@harrybond1485 🤣👍 Don't hurt yourself!

You can send pics to your state's archeology board to get one opinion. Other than that, talk to people, watch videos, read...

Removing bark from pols that were used for structures was important. Bark tends to retain moisture and insects which breaks down the wood in short order. So, de barkers were an important tool that helped structures last much longer.

@@brentkuehne435 Guess, I found my first de-barker Brent. Thanks!

@@jppestana1 got a video coming just for you!

@@brentkuehne435 Great! Thanks! I have to share this with someone. So I spent years in the high desert finding artifacts and learning as I went along. We moved to Del and I figured that this was it -no more artifacts. I had to work a number of flowerbeds around the house recently and near a tree I hit stone-I take it out and just about lose my mind-it is a beautifully made quartz scraper. A little while later I hit stone and pull out a matching quartz polishing tool! And then, entwined in tap roots I see a medium mano, same exact quartz. It took a hand sledge and a 2x4 to loosen it. I then found a quartz finger scraper-all from the same quartz. It is the first time I have EVER found what is clearly an amazing set of woman/child primary tools that were certainly prized possessions-all nicely made classic constructs for small-medium hands..

It does have a greenish tent in some places ? Thanks for the comment.

@@marihilari5435 belief is so often the end of logic and reason.

Don't buy into his delusions! All of that is naturally worn by millions of years of Mother Nature! A truly worked artifact will show actual signs of workmanship.

Have many points myself, but there are way more tools out there! Have concentrated on tools for some time now with some of my best in a museum.

@@jonpitt1242 Uffda, you stick to your story and we will try not to giggle at ya...too much.

@@jonpitt1242omg You sound like my wife. Debbie downing all my ancient stone tool finds.

Same dawg!! Haha then seen your comment so fuck I comment again

Thought so to sis 😊

@@SLBLADE Hey Brother!!! 🔮🐢

@@OntarioAtOrion 😜👊

I also thought I was a bird stone.

Some of the grinding stones I have were definitely also used as pestles. Thanks for the comment.

Interesting about the foot stones! I have some also that look exactly like a foot.

I LOVE any and all things rock too! I recently started applying something called 'Museum Wax' to some of my artifacts and it brings out colors, wear marks, etc. I'm amazed by how many of them were painted.

I haven't learned a thing. nothing is identified.

Thanks for the comment !

On no. There’s no such thing as PRE-CLOVIS. Didn’t you hear. The academics have drawn a line in the sand and said the C-14 dating on the new sites must have been contaminated cause no one was here before Clovis

💯👍Pre Clovis inhabitation has recently been proven so far as North America now has 2 or 3 pre 10,000 year old sites from one in southern California to 12000 yrs old site that had mammoth bones showing knife marks in NW Washington State.

You shouldn’t say anything if you’re going to say something that sounds seriously ignorant!!! Mostly because you have no clue it should be embarrassing you are so sure of that, why and how are you an expert anyway!!!? 🤣🤫😬😐

And 7 thumbs up!?!😂😂 come on!

No Jay, not kidding!

Could be ?

Jealousy/envy is always a nasty emotion. Get rid of it and you will b a better person. Or, great idea--get your own channel, 😎

Academia has ommited and overlooked artifacts simply because the practical use was unknown or radiocarbon dates don't match expected time frames. So much is discarded as non artifact even though pecking grinding ,flaking, finger holds, chiseling ,drilling or specific areas of polishing are present so only a small fraction is actually accepted by the "scientific community". So many leave the archeology field after getting degrees due to this. Likely to promote darwinism as an antidote to religious beliefs but that's another story in itself. it's a free country at the moment and so believe what you like but I assure you there's more to mankinds story than what we are told in school.

@harrybond1485 Sorry, but you're not correct.

​@@brentkuehne435As a career geologist, and archeologist of 40 years, I am certain I do know.Those are in no way human artifacts.

@@harrybond1485 Hum, Then you should know that glaciers didn't quite make it to Georgia during the last Ice Age. Look, not trying to be smart, but been at it a long time. I'm a geologist myself and have worked with many archeologists. I know more about the local prehistory cultures than anyone in this area, including the archeologists that work this area.

@@brentkuehne435 If you are really a college trained geologist, then you would know that the earth has experienced many glacial ages going back more then 2 billion years.What we now call Georgia was near.the South polar regions at that.time.Ever heard of continental drift and the splitting apart of continents?The earth has experienced at least 11 glacial advances and maximums spanning the last 2+ billion years.By the way, where did you attend college? Do you have a degree in geology?

Maybe hell.

jello, I am waiting for you to do some videos so I can learn so much from you. O, I forgot you have no content 🤔

nope !

Been at it a long time, and have done a ton of research on the native American cultures that inhabited this area. Have many of my best finds in a local museum. Worked over a year on the museum project with the curator, historians and academia.

@@brentkuehne435 I also have been doing this for a very long time , over 50 years. I'm curious as to what museum, I'd like to go visit it. Thank you.

@@michaeloshea3090 it's at the Rabun County historical society museum in North East Georgia. The museum is a chronological history of the region. Starts with Mississlppian culture which is mine, then Cherokee and on to modern times. It's a new museum and really nice.

@@michaeloshea3090 what part of the country are you in?

@@brentkuehne435 Why should that matter? Most collectors that work with museums that I know collect all over the county and have knowledge of all of the different time frames of our past,not just a couple. By the way I'm also on the east coast and also have contacts with many museums.

Torrible ,as Charles Barkly would say🤣

No shit. Your making people dumber.
