Just finished watching this video and thoroughly enjoyable. Sometimes you find goodies sometimes you don't as with metal detecting. I learned a little bit from all of your videos something new each time. Thank you for sharing and good luck.

Mr. Cleg considering all the time you have spent on the river you should be the guy to ask this question over the last 10,000 years how many fire pits do you estimate may have been used along said river banks including both shores. It seems by your vids there are 100’sof thousands of them thanks for listening. Love your content!
Marian Gibbs You can read about them in this link. Basically, they are usually sandstone but sometimes hard stone that have had cups pecked or drilled into them. It is unclear what these were used for but we’re definitely man made. Some think they were used for cracking nuts, others think they were used as tool dressers ( smoothing and rounding up antler billets) to work flint. But nobody knows for sure. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cupstone
Scott, I think the rock you flipped at 4:19 was used as a nutting stone. Did you picked it up? You also picked up the red flat piece of rock with flat sides. Go back and get this! It is an artifact!! Keep it and research it!!! :)
Michael Meisberger May have been , I’m down here now. I’ll check before I leave. There are a few I didn’t keep over there just because the holes weren’t too good. But I’ll check it before I leave today. Good eye !

@@santafedave1051 Countless numbers.
that's a lot of work for few finds, you are very dedicated. Keep up the good work
Townsend Walton The big one is in there somewhere. I can feel it. Thank you for watching.
Suprised you kept that hammer stone? Thought you were gonna skip it across the river.
That hematite is gorgeous.
Much Appreciated
I have a piece of pottery that looks exactly like it! Looks as if they could fit together almost and I’m in indiana right off the Ohio river
I’m in WV
Do you think you are being Bamboozled yet ? Thumbs 👍 Up !
Bamboozled? 👍
It wasnt a nutting stone it's where 1800"s drilled blast holes in mining
First I’ve heard that one👍
What is a notting stone ?

Maybe a child's scraper?
Could be Norma👍. I figure a lot of stuff was for children, they surly had toys. I bet the first toy was probably a clay doll.

@@cleggsadventures Also make sure to get the rock that was flat on both sides and tapered. I am also positive that is either an ax or a pendent.
I didn’t see any signs of work on it but I have it stashed on the beach. I’ll pick it up next time and examine it closer at home.
