https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5o3ZCfSdvSU He finds arrowheads and other things he claims are real artifacts everywhere. Maybe I’m unaware how common this is, but I’m sort of on the fence about this guy being completely legit. In one video he says all you have to do is go to one of these buildings that has pebbles all around it, and you’ll find arrowheads, but in a later video he says its his own building. In other videos he pulls these blackened stones out of the ground which he calls ancient heating stones used by Native Americans. It seems like it’s just his own theory. I dunno, maybe he’s a rare lone super genius archeologist. Anyways the guy seems pretty interesting. Good Sphere fucked around with this message at 19:40 on May 8, 2023 |

In an alternate timeline somewhere we’re still using bows and arrows and arrowhead pollution is a major ecological concern.

The king of the hill episode where some intellectual goober digs up hank's lawn looking for arrowheads and repeatedly gets pushed by hank into the excavated hole at the end but the intellectual goober is the OP

He keeps finding the same arrowhead in every video OP. It's like golf he throws the arrowhead than searches for it.

Also if he knew what he was doing he prolly wouldnt be using the term arrowhead, since a lot/the majority of what people actually call arrowheads are not actually arrowheads.

I have no clue who clegg is, but depending on where he's at, it's not unreasonable to assume he might frequently find points. I'm a weirdo shark tooth collector, and folks in the hobby come across points all the time while digging/sifting for teeth.

one time i saw a nice looking rock in a little stream in the sierras. i hung from a tiny walking bridge over the stream and grabbed blindly at the nice looking rock. instead of getting it i ended up with an arrowhead in my hand. for someone who compulsively watches for nice looking pebbles and such i'd expect to have had this happen to me every few weeks for my whole life, not just once

Ancient heating stones is probably bullshit outside of some specific circumstances. Massage therapist here. Hot stones sold in amazon and whatnot are usually lava rock from wherever, often billed as being Icelandic. I can tell you that black stones with very little sand composition makes for good (cheap) hot stones. Plus they’re big and heavy so customers prefer them. Anything that’s not mostly sand will hold heat well, so I used black river rock from my local lawn and garden store. They can be heated in a fire, crockpot or oven and stuck in bedding for warmth. So that’s probably what native heating stones are.

I can tell you that black stones with very little sand composition makes for good (cheap) hot stones. Plus they’re big and heavy so customers prefer them. Eh I watched the the video. He's talking about stones used to heat up water in containers and his reasoning is he found fire affected rock. Fire affected rock is loving everywhere if you look for it, while there are indeed dozens of cultural reasons why it could be in a location it can also (and commonly does) occur from wildfires, or from a campfire. In order to say with any real degree of confidence that it's actually a thing archaeologically I'd either need to see it as being part of a feature ( it's definitely a thing), in association with positively identifiable artifacts (maybe confident, area could have been burned over), or it being a material that wasn't local to the area (So like someone transported basalt to an area that only has sandstone for miles around). Similar dealio with your idea, I'd need to see a lot of other things before I made a determination that it was cultural. Telsa Cola fucked around with this message at 19:44 on May 9, 2023 |
