    This would be a great story to tell your grandchildren.
    These are so wonderful to listen to and watch.
    Does anyone else love the sound of the scrapping on the dirt at the introduction?
    Me!! 🙆‍♂️

      I do. I’m glad you mentioned it. I always wondered who’s doing it. 🙋‍♀️🇺🇸

    I can only imagine the excitement you must have experienced as you lifted such a treasure from that well. I like the well display highlighting the artifacts you’ve found. Great video. Mary

    Both the halberd and pistol were among the most mesmerizing finds.

    Too cool!!! Just dug a ton of artifacts today as well. Came home to rest and relax by watching others uncover more artifacts!

    Is there an xray of the pistol? I'd love to see the inner workings. Do you think someone tossed it in the well to hide it from someone else? Perhaps a Jamestown murder mystery? I'd love to visit someday and see all the artifacts. My relatives supposedly arrived through Jamestown.

    Sharing the process is one thing, but sharing the emotion of the team is so much more! This is how you inspire to aspire! Thank you.

    Me: “O’ Pistol of the Well, tell us your secrets!”
    Pistol of the well: “I’m a literal pistol that’s been stuck in a well for nearly half a millennia…”

    I wish people would pronounce the Powatan Natives as they were originally called: POE uh tahn.

    Sorry. This seems to be about you,.. not the artifact. How about why important and useful items are in a well.?

    Is a roman lock similar to a snaphaunce lock? What is the difference? I look forward to your videos and never fail to learn something new each time. Thank You!
