Hey fellow Okie. I'm a member of The Wyandotte Tribe of NE Ok. and also Cherokee. I found a 10k yr. old Kansa Chert scraper along the banks of the Verdigris River, just before The Caney merges with it. It was just a top soil find as I was walking back to my truck after searching all day for artifacts. That was the only thing I found that day. Thank you for the video. Keep educating ppl.
Cool info, interesting they had to travel for the material, and wow, dating an area by animal mandibles, cool to find out that's a technique.
I like that phrase. The past has never been more present.

We think it perfectly epitomizes what we're going through now!
Thank you so much for this video. Question: could the extensive butchering of the bison at this site reflect scarcity of other food resources? For example, if the area is in a drought cycle limiting migrating birds, reliance on bison might increase? You’ve certainly given me something to think about. 👍

Thanks for your comment. We will forward it and get a response
Found a Hell gap a few years back while picking up litter along the Platte just outside of Denver. Tractor uncovered a strange tooth on the same sandbar which I identified as a peccary. What was The latest time frame for peccarys in Colorado?
