The donut shape rock that you have look to be a weight that were used in agriculture. They were part of a portable dam they used in The Gila Aqueduct System here in Southwest Arizona

Hey the little hide scraper were most likely not made that little. Think about it like this. Every tool you make takes time energy and material. Some times the material came from hundreds of miles away. So when you used a tool and it eventually gets dull the resharpen them as not to waste a perfectly good tool. Over time they get smaller and smaller then eventually its too small to use or rework. So new ones made old ones thrown away which like the knives were smaller then they were when first made. That may better idea then a hummingbird scrapper lol

California 1800s - - A rancher horseman saw a hanging "charm-stone" by a stream & when he approached it a native man run up to object to what he had done. Read in a historic book. Tiny arrow head points, made from flakes, have historically been associated with bedrock mortar sites. Also numerous small flakes have been seen scattered around bedrock mortar area, maybe to snip basket making materials.

Actually that was overwhelming! Wonderfully humble and interesting man to share his passion with us! Please say thank you to him for us. I collected as a kid and did not realise how rich the area I collected was. Benton county Indiana. Us kids often found so many points that sometimes we would walk the fields and literally throw points at each other! I managed to put away a few for long term storage and recently found and opened a box I packed 45 years ago. I remember one summer we found 3 "ax/hatchet/hammer" heads in field! My cousin found a huge "ax" head the same summer ! It was examined and determined to likely be ceremonial as it was too large and heavy to be used for any length of time. The land has long been sold off the family estate and now is watched closely by the new owners. It was farm ground but I believe the artifacts are worth far more than the cost of the farm land is worth. I wish as a kid someone had let know just how special that area was, I may have appreciated it more. Good memories none the less! Great video and thanks for sharing!

The way he has arranged his collections are just beautiful, easy to look at!!!

A passionate and knowledgeable collector. This is the way to share knowledge, not through large monopolizing museums that are thousands of miles away.

I'm an old "rockhound" from Ohio. Having been a surface collector&involved with many excavations over 55+yrs, I congratulate you on your collection, as well as the information you've given the gentleman you're showing your collection to, and also those seeing your video. We've got "Flint Ridge" along the Licking/Muskingum county line. Which was a colorful flint quarrying site for over 10,000yrs.

man o man what a lovely collection. the displays and everything including the colorful cut marble slabs. a mini museum!

You're place is ten times better than a museum. People would pay to check out everything. High quality 👍

That's a hell of a collection!!! Beautiful!!!

Wow! What an amazing collection! Thank you so much for sharing this! Absolutely amazing. I could spend years looking at and admiring all that history. And your wealth of knowledge about each piece is unbelievable! Please continue sharing all you can!

Great collecting to say the least. In answer to your question, I personally think that their technology was spread about from one group to another. And through communication from the one group,as the ideas trickled down, perhaps each tribe or at least some of the tribes,began thinking along the same lines as others, possibly tweaking shapes to their own personal prefferances,and trial and error, which is the most logical approach. Keep on hunting!

The great spirit taught all tribes how to make arrowheads during vision quests.

Thank you terry carter and thanks goes to the collector of such an incredible collection. I learned so much from the two of you. Are there any more videos of this collection? I so enjoyed hearing the collector describe his collection.

Hey jamesdouglaswhite Thank you, for watching and commenting

That’s super cool. I went to get a check from a farmer we hauled hay for and he had a glass case of Indian artifacts his families collected for a hundred years. Always cool to see.

Wow awesome collection everything is absolutely beautiful🤩

I am impressed with this collection

cool collection, I appreciate the information that went along with the video

I could be lost in there for days easily. The 2 soap stone pieces were spectacular. Amazing collection. I'd love the opportunity just to go through the stuff he's forgotten he has. Lost in a box stuff. Too cool.

RE: The base of the points, Bow and arrow points had a smaller base in most cases whereas Atalatl points had a larger base. They would be lashed to a foreshaft which attached to a main shaft which could be retrieved. The foreshaft would be imbedded in the prey animal. Atalatl points were somewhat larger than bow and arrow points. Thrusting spear points were slightly larger than the others although you will find many who disagree with all of this. If you knap, I think you will tend to agree with me. Outstanding collection! Now I know why I never found any points in Wyoming LOL!

Thanks Terry, your videos never disappoint me. Awesome collection.

We find a lot of Indian artifacts here on private land. We worked last year searching for other things and began to find so many, now Native American artifacts are a prime focus this season after a winter of research. We had known it was all here but until we realized how much there is it was not a primary target.

FABULOUS COLLECTIONS. Love it! Very Nice.

Love this collection.

I’ve been hunting and collecting NC artifacts for over 30 years. I’ve been blessed to find some incredible stuff.

Nice collection of eagle bone whistles

Finally they show the obcidian gunther! The long black, barbed ones. I have a standing theory that those were for big birds such as turkey, goose and sage grouse. Otherwise it was for incapacitating a man. They don't penitrate deep. They are designed to intimidate, incapacitate, and fall apart. And that look.

This guys great. Love it

Really nice collections this man put together. A big chapter in ones life to collect and frame like this. Really priceless museum collections. Vsry peacecul and deadly at the same time..centuries of representatives

That is beautiful

Wow! I would love to just have a couple of arrowheads. This guys collection boggles my mind.

Reminds me of Russel Quella's collection here in Indiana. He was from Fulton county, he'd been collecting since 1890s. Ted Drews from Starke County Indiana knew Russel they use to hunt Indian Artifacts. My older brother started hunting with Ted, I started hunting with my older brother when I was 7 or 8. 66 now. He's got a few Cado pots, cache blades, numerous mounds along the two rivers here.

Kept many folks alive day to day. Makes ones mind run wild

Really amazing collection!

On top of your black case those big rocks those are stands and I think statues went on top for mostly birds if you look and if there's a notch in the stand which I can see it one at the bottom is a notch that's usually the bottom so it would stand up but they're usually birds and you might see the tail feathers cuz usually the bodies and the heads break off and the tip of the tail but you might be able to see feather marks in the rocks

Very enjoyable video. Would love to see this in person

I see a ton of mini crafting tools like the micro arrow heads are the original exacto knife

Awesome

And then he busted out the cases from the safe. OMG OUTSTANDING

That's cool the raw mineral with polished stone in those white round displays. Never seen that before.

I'd love for this guy come to Mississippi and design my collection . Of course I don't have as big as collection, my wife and found all nearly 300 or so. In a 30 mile radius. congratulations on your fenamenal collection.

Looks like a bunch of shinny rocks! ;)

Wow!

here in Philipsburg Montana you can still collect your own Yogo Sapphires. it is fun! and sometimes you find a really nice gemstone.

"Pioneers of France in the New World" by Francis Parkman page 79 speaking of a Chief named Calos by two ship wreck sailors "In one of his villages was a pit, 6 feet deep and as wide as a hogshead, filled with treasure gathered from Spanish wrecks on adjacent reefs and keys." an excerpt from documents dated 1564

Nice!

Okay this guy has more than his fair share!!! Lol. Wow!! Unbelievable collection!! Imagine if those pieces could talk!

Love it! Fyi people: museum glass doesn't reflect so much, if you plan on displaying.

Those should be in a museum for all to see..

That chalcedony one is 🤯😍.

Just speechless sir

Beautiful collection, and I believe that the different tribes learned thru cultural diffusion, or one learned from another. Same with pottery, but I believe tribes got along with each other better than history would tell us, is why we don't have reports from the very earliest explorers seeing tribes not getting along with each other. I think we're the main instigator in them not after we came with so much grief for them. Thanks.

I am from NE Oklahoma and I have found several tools,and manos. Some very similar to what I watched here. Truly AMAZING!!

16:45 the "fish hook" is actually a tool for stripping reeds & grass for basket making.

All different “tribes” or cultures would often trade materials and often knowledge on different point types. Different point types was technology for them, so different cultures would trade in different techniques on making points and other necessities. Evidence over time has shown that in fact different cultures did trade materials such as flints, cherts, and blade blanks or preforms that most people call them. These trades would give different cultures materials that was needed more than others. The Native Americans never actually stayed in one place, they always were on the move and following the game so meeting other cultures was most likely common. Great video and great looking artifacts.

@14:48 that rock with the three grooves, I’ve seen similar use as weights to hold the bottom of the nets to the floor of the body of water. I would also like to suggest another possible use. Sort of along the net making, but for making rope and cordage. As you twist 3 pieces in the same direction a block is used to slide along as the ropes twists into its form. It keeps the twist even and slides along as you go. Or as a mace of some sort….

The projectiles were also different between individuals within the tribe. And the small scrapers were probably used for reeds for basket making.

Definitely need to work on your camera skills buddy. Thanks for bringing us these amazing creations, though. The artistry that he put into some of these make them worth that much more money. Amazing historical value to these pieces. He lives in a museum!!

Great collection. In my opinion if they are knapping and using arrow heads it's from them traveling and passing it on to the ones they meet and or trade with.

Seeing you in socks reminds me of one of the first & worst butt whipping’s I got from my Old Man (Dad!). I walked in a friend of my Dad’s house with my shoes on and this house was beautiful, multi million dollar home. He told me above why I would never do that and that was my last warning! Next time, he seen me walk in my Uncles home w/ shoes on, I didn’t get a warning! Now, I’m 50 yrs old, no matter if a multi million dollar home or a $3k home, I take my shoes off! It’s the greatest show of respect that can be afforded to someone & their home! It’s hard to do when kicking in a door on a crack house serving a warrant , however, even then, I feel like Dad’s looking down upon me with that look. Lol. GOD I miss that MAN! Thank you Mr. T!

Please lets go find some more in Wyoming!!

Wow, this is an amazing collection.

I noticed that you had a few spherical stones. On researching stone cannon balls i went to a link by a fellow who has a theory that many of the spheres are actually hunting throwing stones of the pre-Paleo era. I have found, in a concentrated area the stones measuring from tennis ball size to softball size. I do find this to be a very thought-out theory. The smaller fit perfectly in my hand for throwing. I believe the Pre-paleo did not have the flint knapping technology. Can you pass on any ideas on this? I too am very impressed with your collection. We are only allowed to collect on private property here. Thank you for posting. JA from N. Calif

As we look at the multiple point types...we can usually trace them back to a progenitor type...often the variations are regional.

on that flint fish hook, i live in saint charles county missouri and i have a very similar stone fish hook, i believe it could have been used the clean fish or use on mussels/mollusks. considering the one in the video is the only other one i have seen, id say that it is an actual now that there are at least two. i also thought it may have been a tool for rounding arrows. this guy has some nice artifacts

I would like to see this collection in person for research.

I appreciate your video & WoW Dude got really Nice Collection. I think just Theory those rolling pin Stones r just That Rolling Pins for bread making. Nature Freedom Dreams. rural carroll county cedar grove TN rockhound.

I would say the smaller hide scrapers you mention are used to remove the poor vein that is in fish. When you remove the guts the fish will still have that black blood vein. It makes the fish go bad if it isn’t removed. I’d say it is a safe bet to say they used those to remove it. I have a bunch of old pottery shards, and stuff like that I’d trade for some bottles I also have a axe head. I found all this stuff in my neighbors house they were throwing out. So I rescued it and went through it. Reply if you’re interested.

Wow!!!! The display style is faultless!! I would spend hours on end just looking at every small detail!!

In your video early on in one of the framed pieces with arrowheads in the center it shows something that looks like shark teeth in a circle pattern in the center, I found a few of those sharp teeth looking items in northern California after the big fires and they were sitting on a rock and I looked at them and they just looked very odd and different I’ve asked so many people what they think it is some people say shark tooth some people say bones it’s very odd but those look exactly what I have found I sure would like to find out if they are anything?
