man what a powerhouse Thebs! that's a killer in my book even with a couple of dings in it. I haven't been able to hit any creeks yet but hopefully soon I'll get to go and find some artifacts to start my new year. awesome hunt guys👍
Well that Thebes looks suspiciously like the one Nelson made at the ridge last time.... Kidding of course. That was indeed a powerhouse! You have made the rest of us jealous. As for Mark, he was on the board so at least he didn't get skunked.
Very nice Thebes! beautiful. I have found material very similar to that in N.KY. I have always assumed Carter cave as well. Thanks for sharing and rock on!
Sweet E notch ....the little damage didn't hurt that thing at all ! Although yours wasn't as big Mark...it took a good eye to find it....LOL Good luck fellas on the next ones !
@PAHead... Thanx.... It is Nelson's first case-worthy Thebes... The E-Notch feature was the bonus plan.... Thanx for the comment and good luck to you too.!
You guys ever get out on the river down around your county? I talked to a guy that looked it with a sifter several months ago and he found a killer Heavy Duty point that is flawless. He had some bird points that were killer as well that would fit on a Lincoln penny.Should try it if you have time. All my better items come off the river
Woo - Niiice Thebs (E Notch)! Very cool nutter stone, and I love those chipped celts (find quite a few of those here in Pa.) As far as that bull-nosed scraper goes, I have to wonder that when they are so thick on the business end, are they blunts made from broken points, or are they hafted - scrapers from the get go? I know that most of the ones that are unifaced are hafted scrapers, not re-purposed points. Of course they could have been knapping a standard point, hit a bad spot part of the way through, and oops .... I guess it's gonna be a hafted - scraper. I guess you had to be there!
Hello Mark and Nelson, I live in Putnam county and I wanted to start looking for arrowheads with my dad. Can you give me some tips on where to go and look?
Love your channel! Got a question, do you all use or can you recommend a good reference book for identifying artifacts? I’m new to all this and am amazed when you guys readily ID something you find.
@MWigal.... We often try to identify artifacts when we find them but often make mistakes until we do a little research... We use the Overstreet Guide for identification... We believe it is the best research tool we have. You should be able to get one from the internet. Good luck... and thanx for the comment.!
@IanC.... They are some sort of old canning jar lid... We find dozens of these things in the creeks. We dont know exactly how old they are and we doubt they are worth anything.
@beveled.... The Thebes points are hard enough to find, let alone the ones with the E-notch... We know they are there now and will be looking for more. LOL... Good luck to you...!

Hilarious! But Seriously, nice find Nelson!
You know Nelson's knapping is much better than that... LOL...

Wow, killer Thebes! Nice live action on the nutting stone too

Congrats on your Thebes Nelson!
Nelson was on today, super Thebes. Nice spot Mark on that little bitty pointed thing.
@rh62... Thanx for the comment... We will be back at it again in a couple weeks... Maybe we will get another burner.
Great hunt!! The Thebes is awesome. Good luck!!
@PAHead... Thanx.... It is Nelson's first case-worthy Thebes... The E-Notch feature was the bonus plan.... Thanx for the comment and good luck to you too.!
You guys are awesome! I don't comment much but you two are just a kick in the butt to watch! So awesome!
looks like a lot of good flat land to dig on next to that creek where you found that Thebes. By the way, awesome find!
thanks as i, ved found a lot of them here in Michigan and wonderd what they were. thanks again
Good stuff guys,that was a hoot!
even the bird point is sweet all of it is great finds yall
That Thebes is nice. Looks like Carter Cave flint to me...that is a good one
@ChristianA.... We also think it is Carter Cave Flint... There is a lot of this material in our hunting sites.
I get lucky and find some....the farther I go down river I start to find it....Around Belpre Ohio I start seeing it in quantity.

Short but Sweet! WTG Nelson!

@DavidS... Our guess is they are made from broken points... but who knows...
Still an excellent example on the thebes.Nice tiny minischul too.:>)
@FlintSp... Thanks for the comment.... The Thebes was a burner... Will be hard to beat but we're on it.
I love looking for arrowheads, I've never looked in a river before, I may need to start.
@EmmaJ.... It works for us... sometimes... We found nothing today. Win some, lose some.... Good Luck..!

Hello Mark and Nelson, I live in Putnam county and I wanted to start looking for arrowheads with my dad. Can you give me some tips on where to go and look?

SenecaRelics Thank you! I’ll check it out.
So Cool !!!
what is that white round glass piece I've found them in a river were I fish and have no idea what they are ????? thanks
@IanC.... They are some sort of old canning jar lid... We find dozens of these things in the creeks. We dont know exactly how old they are and we doubt they are worth anything.
Great job guys! What is that white line on the Thebes?
@Ben Meter.... The white line is some sort of inclusion in the flint... It is visible on both sides.
SenecaRelics I appreciate the response guys.
how do you know what creeks to look in?
man i want to fin d a dovetail too
Nice guys.
those E's aren't very common...and that one's a dandy .
congrats guys.
@beveled.... The Thebes points are hard enough to find, let alone the ones with the E-notch... We know they are there now and will be looking for more. LOL... Good luck to you...!
ther was a point rite by the 1st one
I like the Mason County Mason lid!!!!
@rnll... We doubted anyone would even notice the jar lid next to the Thebes... LOL...
do you know what time period these are from?
