- Another installment in our Native American 101 series, What We Know or What We Think We Know. This one is called “They’re All Artifacts” and again we try to answer some of your questions and share some of what we have learned over the years.

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!! 👍🏻
Thanks Mike! When we first met yall all we knew was whether they were pretty or not. We know a little more now and it just seems right to pass on what we have learned from you guys and others. Thanks for everything my friend. See you real soon!
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 .
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.
The history coming out of the ground you guys find is absolutely awesome. God Bless you all.
Thank you sir!
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.
It is our pleasure. Thank you for watching and for the great comment.
Loving y'alls informational vids. Great idea. Keep em coming, Spike. And best of luck to y'all...
Thanks Ben! Good luck to yall too my friend!
Great video, but that shirt is awesome.

Dude, you guys are so entertaining! You got a good thing going.
Thanks. We do so appreciate the kind words. It means a lot.
Would like to see different sizing of points vs. arrowheads.
Still loving all the great content. Thanks alot and great job

So interesting and informative,thank you very much
Thanks Mike. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Randy for sharing your knowledge.
My pleasure.
I am glad that you said we don't know what was what, and it's totally our ancestors fault for destroying the record that were kept by the Natives
They didn’t have any records. Especially considering all these artifacts were made millennia ago, by people who were merely ancient ancestors of the later natives.
Thanks for info! Love you guys!
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching.
Very interesting! Plus some nice artifacts
Thanks!
Good job fellas! Relic room is lookin good to Spike!

Very good video! I enjoyed very much. Take care.
Thanks, you too!
EXCELLENT!!!

Very informative! Now if I could find some on my hunting lease.
Thanks and good luck.
Here in central Indiana I've found a little bit of everything .
no because you didn't find mako shark teeth with graphite and golddusted flintridge point
Hi I like your vidios because I can learn thanks so much keep up the good work and the info have a good one 👍😎
Thanks. We're glad they are helpful and the same to you.
Your welcome thank you
Thank You.
You're welcome sir!
Great informative video guys 👍 very well done also.🏹
Thanks John.
I hear people pronounce
" atl'atl"
But the correct way to pronounce it would be
"at'latl"
#HeartbreakerRelics Do you know anything about the turqoise trade beads? We found them in a cave on the Tennessee river in southeast TN. In meigs county,TN, on watts bar lake to be exact.
If you will send me some pics to my email I'll see if I can find them in a book I have. spike39560@gmail.com
@@HeartbreakerRelics Do you have another email? Tried sending some pics to that email but received a message saying the address was invalid. Thanks!
@@michaeldeloach6610 that's the only one I have. It's not invalid. Try going to the web page www. heartbreakerrelics.com and sending it through the email link there.
Hi Randy I like your videos allot. I myself hunt for Arrowheads I field hunt most of the time but will get in a. Creek once in awhile . I find early stuff as well as Adina's woodland and missippian I'm going to try and do the creek digging all though I do have back trouble so it won't be easy . The way you explained about the types is very informative thank you for teaching everyone about the types and time periods you did a great job happy hunting you guys keep the videos coming thanks again Ken
Thanks for watching and for the great comment. We appreciate it.
Awesome vid brother👍🇺🇸
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
I would love to know what is a good place to look and start cave hunting and stuff. I am new but I have looked in a few caves but nothing there
We had the opportunity to hunt a couple caves or rock shelters years ago. We did find anything mainly because we didn't know what we were doing. Keep going and good luck.
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.
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
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.
Y’all com bac na here 😂😂😂
Don't know how many times I have tried to explain these things to folks .
There's no substitute for experience but maybe these little videos will help someone understand better. I wish I had something like this years ago. I wouldn't be so far behind now lol.
Spike
What is the map you use that tells you the different rock
How do you make the frames that are on the walls and how do you secure the artifacts to them??
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.
@@HeartbreakerRelics nice! I have literally buckets of arrowheads + artifacts that I found in Washington state.. some day want to display them. Thanks👍 😊
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.
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.
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.
@@willthethrill4073 makes sense.
I really love y’all’s videos please don’t don’t say (bp)
Cause we are in ad (Anno Domini)
(AD)
Anno Domini I’m the year of the lord that day that pure beloved god/Jesus Christ was born….
When editing I cut and paste the information from the internet for the sake of time. That's where the BP comes from.
Thanks!
@@HeartbreakerRelics oh no I understand 100% god bless you all and keep making the videos I love them I’m here in southern ky the hunting is really hard right on the tn and ky central line
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?
Banner stones were not used as additional weight on a atlatl. It was used as a tool.
They were used as counter weight on the atlatl, the throwing handle. We plan on doing a video on the atlatl soon.
Awesome information Randy!! And Spike, thanks again for your advice on digging - it really paid off for me yesterday!! If you have a moment check out my new dig, I found lots of cool stuff. Thanks again for your videos, you guys are inspiring! Have a great day 😎
Thanks! That is awesome! I'm going to try to catch up on some of your stuff tonight.
Are you guys into Native American culture as a whole or just like collecting artifacts?
They kind of both go hand in hand. Our interest mostly lies in the pre-Columbian culture though.
How can I tell if my artifact Is an actual Clovis?
That’s a chert y’all 😅😅
I definitely think they used spears really early on then evolved from there.
We tend to agree.
Whats the smallest point yall have ever found? I ask because i have some smaller than a penny and i would love to share them with yall mostly for information.
We found one in Catahoula parish Louisiana I think it was, that would fit on a dime.
They are amazing, arent they
I wonder what the purpose of them were. Any ideas?
Do you have a email address, I got a few artifacts I would like your opinion on. I’ve got several hand axes I found. I think they are Pieces they might have used for Worship or Special.
That’s a knife y’all 😅😅
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!!! This series in my mind is a Great Idea.... but I wonder if you not talking to mostly to others with knowledge like your self and a minority of others...... Me, I am one the minority others!!!!
Thanks Stan. You're right we do not have a lot of hematite show up down here. It's not natural so would have to be brought in. We're trying to relate to those with little knowledge in the area but we do miss the boat on that at times.
Why is everything y’all 😂😂
Why not?
Y’all need to speak yanky 😂😂
.
That’s why the south lost 😂😂😂
You know you can say too much!
Y’all can’t speak well 😂😂😂
Four gay men 😂😂
