Excellent vid Spike!! And fantastic job to you Randy!! Very informative with great examples for reference!! This is no doubt a fantastic and efficient method of educating those interested in learning about these artifacts and their use and origins. These segments are a nice addition to the hunting videos and provide a more in-depth, detailed explanation and description of the items we find. Big thumbs up my friends!! 👍🏻

Thank you for sharing and being humble in regards to not be an expert on all the lithic points and material . I live near a known site in north of Houston. I'm convinced that the Native Americans flourished and thrived here. I find a whole variety if nutting stones. Based on the shear volume, I suspect, during the appropriate season, these stones were critical for subsistence. I wish these stones would get the respect and acknowledgement they deserve.

Have you done a video on nutting stones yet ? If so I missed it . I have always heard them called nutting stones . But , my theory on them is this . A friend of mine that is a flint napper uses a brick to do his pressure flaking on . It now has dimples in it at different depths . Looks just like the dimples in a nutting stone . Also many nutting stones show use as hammers on the sides, another hint that they were used in the manufacture of flaked tools . You answered my question about a minute ago .

@HeartbreakerRelics

We are if the same thought on the nutting stones, especially the small ones. They are most likely anvils used in the pressure flaking as you said. Take care Cliff.

Well, that just lit my bulb! I have a huge stone that has an approximate 12"x12" surface area that is covered with dimples on one side with about half as many on the other. The majority of them are uniform in size and they're the only reason I noticed it at all because it looked like a giant stone die lying there among the rocks as if it had rolled away from the old gods while they threw dice on the mountain top long ago. It weighs about 25-30 lbs. Interestingly, it was on private property in a mountainous area of Tennessee and the friends who owned it said they'd also discovered a cave on the property that still contained artifacts such as pottery and tools. Few were told about the cave and none were told the location as they wanted it to remain as they'd found it. My stone is so odd looking I couldn't imagine how or why it had been used like it had, but your comment makes the most sense of any I've heard so far. Thanks for sharing.

As always enjoyed watching thanks for sharing 👍

How do you make the frames that are on the walls and how do you secure the artifacts to them??

@HeartbreakerRelics

We buy our frames from different manufacturers such as T&B Case Co. and Hatchet Creek Cases. We also get some from Hobby Lobby. They are held in the case by the friction between the glass and the foam backing.

What exactly was a bannerstone used for? I’ve heard that they were on atlatl spears but if they were on them wouldn’t the spear be unbalanced and hrder to throw?

Very informative video. Can the different points or artifacts you all find be traced back to one group or tribe of Native Americans.... like does a Collins belong to this group or does a Gary belong to that group??? Thanks for the video you guys always do a great job. Keep diggin and siftin GOD BLESS

@HeartbreakerRelics

Thanks. It all goes back to a video we dropped a few weeks ago. These were pre-Columbian groups for the most part. There are no records of group structure before then. We don't know if they had tribes or groups or even what they would have called themselves.

Do y’all have any points from Harrison County Mississippi if so I would love one of my collection

As a matter of fact we do not. We have not found one point in Harrison county.

I hear people pronounce " atl'atl" But the correct way to pronounce it would be "at'latl"

Were points made out of Quartz…? I found a sure shaped point yesterday made out of white quartz, in the North GA area.

Yes, in Georgia quartz was one of the primary materials used for points.

I definitely think they used spears really early on then evolved from there.

Awesome video! Very informative! But something doesn't make a lot of sense to me,,, why would they make a blade to be used for a knife with sharpened on both sides? It would make more sense to only sharpen one side and leave the other side flat,, to put a finger on,, like our skinning/cutting knives of today.

@HeartbreakerRelics

Good question. Many blades were ground on one side or were ground on the end for hafting. Some have even suggested they may have been held with a piece of leather like a glove.

Gives you 2 cutting edges also, so if one side dulls or breaks during use, you don't have to re-sharpen as often. Only my thoughts. I could very well be wrong.

How can I tell if my artifact Is an actual Clovis?

One of the rocks I do not see you have is Hematite, not even carried in from another parts of the country!!! Most of the Native Americans in the north were Creek Indians because live on the Creeks and River systems... Very similar, like Spike is talking about!!!
