Clinging to the face of a sheer, 14’ river embankment, Gauge Oehm, 11 years young, carefully clawed the soil around an outrageous Native American treasure sticking just inches out of the dirt wall, untouched by human hands for millennia. The deeper he dug—4”, 5”...
Bison antiquus skull believed to be extinct around 13,000 years ago. An old lock and a few hyde scrapers and a hafted Hyde scrapers. I found these in 2021
Uvalde, zephyr, and unfluted and discarded Clovis culture point. Big stack on one side but still amazing. The black zephyr point is a 4 inch 1st or second stage point. My favorite finds here in Central Texas 2021&2022
Found this in NW Florida, not far from where I recently picked up an arrowhead. Just wondering if you guys think it could be a pottery shard? Looks like it might even be burnt on one end. Thanks in advance!
Found this buried on my property in Sacramento Mountains. Picture on my jeans is after rubbing dirt off, other after I get washed it. Appreciate opinions. The hole is what really got me curious. Thx
My grandson found this unique item near a Kentucky creek and we are trying to determine authenticity. The notches at the end seem fairly defined. After reading some other articles I'd say we've ruled out a stone moccasins last. Do you think this could have been a tool? Any ideas guys? Thanks...
Hi I am new to this site but I am looking for any type of information on this piece that I found while walking on our hunting lease. I have showed it to several people no one can relatively give me any type of information or seen one like this I had someone offer me wanting to buy it but I'm not...
This surface find was out of my league as a detectorist and beachcomber. When i saw this sitting in the surf on the sand and approached it I was shocked to realize I knew what it was right away. This comes from someone who has never been able to find a complete point of any sort in my 65 yrs of...
was looking through old rocks i had tossed into a the garden since the weather was so nice today and came across this super sharp half moon shaped edge blade with a bunch of points and pieces. It looks like there may be some carvings or markings i'm unfamiliar with. Any help identifying is...
Found this little beauty many years ago while 4 wheeling a ridge here in North Georgia where erosion exposed much of the hillside.
Any terminology on the style of this point would be much appreciated!!
Hello All!
This is my first post in this forum and I plan to show a few more that I've stumbled upon.
I found this piece while metal detecting the edge of a pond runout that had been dug out to increase depth. I've found a few arrowheads in my time but nothing like this. Any info would be...
I found this one today when I was planting a mum for my mom. It kind of rough looking, especially on one side. It's perfect to me though. I looked but I can't find which type it is. Can anyone tell me? Yea! Finally.:hello2:
I have a bunch of artifacts that I've found in Virginia that I need some help identifying and dating. I'm fairly new to artifact hunting and am in need of someone's expertise. I can't seem to find a whole lot of info or examples of most of the stuff that I've been finding. I have found slate and...
I have a bunch of artifacts that I've found in Virginia that I need some help identifying and dating. I can't seem to find a whole lot info or examples of most of the stuff that I've been finding. I have found slate and Quartz/quartzite tomahawk heads, hammers, knives, scrapers, spear points...
Found these while walking on the beach with my young son. I think they might be arrowheads? The other rocks seemed unusual not sure if they are Indian related. We went to the library and have been reading about Indian artifacts. Any information is greatly appreciated.
Hi everyone!
While playing with my daughter in the backyard the other day I came across a large, rather weird-looking rock that on closer inspection almost appears to have been made into some sort of weapon or tool. The edge is very sharp, it fits perfectly into my palm, and there are even...
Please excuse the cross post from the Fur Trade Artifact forum, as it was suggested I post here for more expert views.
A couple of years ago my Mother mentioned that my deceased Stepdad had some type of Indian something. I asked my Mom about it over the Thanksgiving holiday, and took these...
Another treasure that I couldn't take home...
Another Indian Ruin site. There are more popular locations about 45 minutes away but this one, as are most of my favorites, are a little off the beaten trail and it deters a lot of visitors. A lot of people don't seem to enjoy hiking through snake...
Hey everyone! I'm new to this site but I think it's very fascinating. I'm hoping that some of you more experienced treasure hunters might be able to help me with this.
I've found a small number of arrowheads and pottery shards in Arizona but a while back I found this stone. The grooves are in...
I'm new here, but I've been hunting for years. This is my collection of "tools" that I have found over the years while out on many a beach walk. I started to notice, they were always made out of the same material, in the same area and no where else. A lady who lived down the street from me who...
While looking for arrowheads on a lake side in Alabama, my daughter found a muddy, odd shaped, "rock". after cleaning it with lake water, it reveled itself as this small cross.
It appears to be hand carved due to the non-perfect patterns.
It weighs about the same as dried clay. The back of the...
I have came a across some interesting rock formations while hiking through the woods. It is something I've never seen before I believe it is a burial of some sort. There is a stack of flat rocks almost tall enough to be a seat, and there are 2 different piles of rock about 3 feet from eachother...
We've recently purchased some property in mid Michigan and I've found some things that look like Indian artifacts. I'm hoping someone wouldn't mind helping me identify the items. I'm very new to this but have grown to love hunting for artifacts and researching them. This is what I have. I'm...
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. If you have an idea of the value please post this as well. My father and I used to hunt arrowheads religiously when I was younger. He recently passed away and left me a collection upwards of 2000 points. I have come upon some hard times and need to sell...
I'm not sure what this is or how old, spear head maybe?
My grandmother found this in 1918 near Gunpowder River in Fallston, MD. It's about 5 1/4 inches long and 1 1/2 inches at the widest point. I'm super new at this forum thing and hope I'm in the right spot. Any feedback and or guidance...
