Years ago Roanoke Rapids lake ,lake Gaston and kerr lake was lowered to kill a weed that was taking over ,my dad and I took a canoe and paddled to an island and found pottery and bits and pieces of bowls ,made of clay ,and some broken plates from the colonial times Halifax County NC
I live close to the Roanoke river and I have heard similar stories. Definitely if there’s a river there is a good chance that native Americans were right beside the water so you can truly find some treasures if you look for them
What a wonderful video! Thank you! Half a century (more or less) ago I was a kid in western NC. Like all kids I suppose, we always looked for and collected arrowheads, our word for any stone tools we found. Plowed fields, and overturned tree root balls were especially good places to find them. Find them we did and traded them back and forth like baseball cards. Years later I learned that almost all the ones we found were of Paleo origin, not the more modern Native American. There really must have been a lot of people with a lot of tools 300 miles south of the Big Ice.
We had camels, giant sloths, mammoths, and giant turtles in NC at the end of the Pleistocene? Amazing! Why didn't our schools teach this in NC history?
And alligators while 100 miles north there's glaciers !!! Imagine them in Alaska and you be as dumb as these idiots. This is worse than the Sifi channel.
@@grimble4564 not true. information was slow to be disseminated until the computer age. We are giving you information as fast as the conditions allow. You thing it was hidden from you? Duh.
This was a very heart centered.....complex levels of advance peoples....hand prints..and foot prints....follow foot of mountains..foot of time..and space...our suns..kingdoms...cycles..coastal archeological explorations. Thankyou...
In downtown DC we have the Wooly Mammoth Theatre as one was found in constructing the building. Also a SOLUTRIAN ( french ) cave man was found off the coast of Maryland! factor that in and under the Clovis layer. Love your video and your topic!
@@jasonsmith2439 some guy was doing his beach combing with a real good metal detector that spied something feet deep in the sand, and he kept digging, until finding an 18th century cannonball ..
Some of my Scottish Craft's of the Croft apparently hooked up with the Red Paint Medicine Cherokee Clan. Animal and Plant Husbandry and living off the land basically shared the same culture. Gold discovered in Donegal, Georgia played a big part in changing things as it alway did and does.
Off the coast of the Outer Banks, just east of Cape Hatteras, is an underwater “structure” which appears to be of enormous size. Google Earth shows it very well and I’ve never found any information on it. Anyone familiar with it?
It’s pretty plain to see and it’s really big. It looks like it’s on the bottom before you reach the continental shelf and it’s large rectangular shapes (not part of google earth; you can see how it looks different in some places.) It’s part of the area that would have been above sea level during the last glaciation.
@@richardfarris2227does it kinda look like a very long, very narrow spike? Then there’s a set of straight lines and angles off the SC coast east of McClellanville.
Excellent documentary. Thank you. Indeed it looks frightening to have lived amongst those prehistoric animals but - gee, sure wish they hadn’t gone extinct 🌹
A very important landscape feature that was omitted was the lost presence of the Longleaf pine. The southeast was covered in 93 million acres of Longleaf until they were clear cut in the late 1800s. A video of that lost ecosystem would be very interesting.
Nature creates an abundance. We have to work with how nature naturally works to create abundance, like permaculture food forests. Create more soil, reduce support trees and increase food trees, grow in 7 levels.
Its hard for me to watch. So exciting to know that there is still possibilitys to find artifacts like clovis and well, anything really. Id rather hunt artifacts than anything else. Great video!!!!
There's a Lewis creek mound culture in the Shenandoah Valley VA. Mound burial builders 700AD to 1100 AD etc... I have been to many of these sites. One in Rockbridge County, archeologists found a shark tooth necklace.
Are you familiar with the impact evidence in North America 12,820 validated by a ash layer in a Greenland ice core sample, and also found elsewhere in soil strata. Habitation is so fascinating. The oldest artifact found in VA was dredged from 400 feet of water near Norfolk Canyon, withbones from a Mastadon kill site/ with carbon dated bones. The Mastadon bones were dated 23,000 BP
The Finger Lakes of New York State were formed by ejecta from an extra-terrestrial impact event. When you see their length, you realize it was ONE BIG IMPACT! Some speculate that the origin of at least some of the Great Lakes were from impact event(s). Cataclysm explains much of ancient history.
This must have been made before the footprints found out west, I can't remember the name, but I do remember that the consensus was that the footprints found were around 20,000 years old. I think I'm right about it.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment! It is fascinating how rivers shape their landscapes over time, and it’s amazing to think about their enduring pathways.
Wish it would have been mentioned that the "Paleo-Indian" theory is debated. The Solutrean Hypothesis is a possible explanation of ancient North American History, too. Kennewick Man, the Spirit Cave Mummies, Sarah Winnemucca's red haired giants, the red haired Windover Bog People - there are a lot of other possibilities.
Thank you for highlighting that! It’s important to consider all the theories out there, and your mention of the Solutrean Hypothesis and others really enriches the conversation.
🤣 Right. Couldn't possibly be the native tribes of today were always here. Had to be the Norsky's, Jews or Spanish...or some other culture trying to nose in. Mind yo own business.
Curious about everything being the same in NC around the ice age. I thought our Appalachian Mountains have been constantly eroding? So are you saying at the time of the Mastodons and wooly Mammoths, erosion stopped?
@@ExploringCreationVids curiously, the artifacts that we’re finding in North Carolina feature mammoths. You have to go very deep to get them. We have large megalithic ones the size of vans.
Was a terrific talk...think about biggest animal's. In north Carolina..plants and trees..birds...just so magical..where did they go.. what happened..that change this hemisphere...what powers...we are facing..extinction possibilities and maybe..reemergence..appearances..coming.....Genesis questions...biggest question..tallest trees .ever
My mother has a very old arrow head made from bone that she found in the garden many years ago. I have some of the arm bones from a giant sloth that I found in a big chunk of marle on a local creek bank while the creek was extremely low that are solidified almost like stone themselves. I tried to donate the bones to our local county museum but they didn't have anywhere to keep them. I have thought recently about possibly selling them but I don't know if there is a market for things like that.
Absolutely! The topic of giants found in the mounds is fascinating and definitely deserves more attention. It could really reshape our understanding of ancient history.
I live in the mountains of North Carolina nesr the New River. Every single time we have broken the ground to build a building or till a garden, we've found arrow heads. On our 54 acres we've found scores of them.
@@ExploringCreationVids I've wished so many times those arrow heads could tell their stories. My dad found what appears to be a really old mortar from a mortar and pestle and mortar. It's made of stone but seems very primitive. He found in one of the creeks on our farm.
And don't forget the giant skeletons, some very well preserved, which have been found and lost or destroyed so frequently. Look up "Forbidden Archeology."
I agree. Archeologists are, by nature, relegated to the position of the drunk man who lost his keys and is looking for them under a street light because he can’t see anywhere else.
@@richardfarris2227 Wow Really?? What are your credentials? I mean what is your education and training in the field to say that? Lord knows, I want to follow you and learn from you if these experts who have 50, 60, 70 years in the fields and decades of education are just full of it. Please take me with you next time you plan to discover how wrong they are and how much more you know than they do. I'm Ready!! Lead on!!

@@TonyLemWoodsPhillips Tony , do your research. Information is out there. Bye the way I don't mind being challenged. Start with Graham Hancock and Randal Carson.
Did you know that as a private American citizen you’re not allowed to carbon date in the us? You must go out of the country for that. I had no idea until I tried to do it
the sea level raising up 400 ft would have crowded all those animals into a smaller space. Remember that western NC is mountains. it would have served as a geological barrier. So the mountains to sea distance got shortened.
Interesting video, but I have to say. Ice Age glacial continental placement meant to me. SPILLOVER EFFECTS If you are that close to the southern ice sheet. Obviously great events occurred, Meaning ice water releases. Huge washouts occurred. Spillover weather coming off the ice sheet would plummet temperatures but especially ice sheet water runoffs!
I read a history of wolves domesticating the variety of large ape to which I belong. The wolves became dogs and the people became modern dog loving humans. Together we created an alliance that could smell and kill anything. An observation from that book has stayed with me. Human/dog migration involved a pervasive pattern of megafauna collapse. Wherever we went, we killed an ate the largest animals.
I used to think not. NC State Wildlife officially says no. I grew up in the piedmont and have spent a good portion of my life in the wilder parts of the state. I've seen just about all the larger animals in their natural habitat. Last year in rural Guilford Co., I was shocked and a little frightened to see a approx. 150+lb tan mountain lion/panther/cougar. I'm experienced. I'm over 50. This is no tale. Had I not witnessed it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it could be true. I assure you, it is.
The Clovis point was supposed to come from Siberia when the first people crossed the Berring Straight yet there has never been a Clovis point found in Siberia. There has been points found in France and Spain that look like Clovis points.
I work All over the Phoenix, Arizona Valley and at least on every job i find Beautiful artifacts . Grinding stone axes 🪓 pottery sherds 😢it kind of kills me to see them being destroyed during construction
The americas were first populated from the south, descent's from aboriginal Australian. The native American Indian was much more recent after the younger dryas
I don’t bout man has been therefore over 40,000 years in Australia the mungo man was dated at least 60,000 years old & could be twice that .he was an indigenous Australian same as the indigenous people now.
I don't think that the population of man during that time period could have wiped out that many big animals. 3 types of elephants thats crazy.. Something else had to happen... 10 to 18,000 years isn't that long ago (earth timeline wise)...
What are now the valleys of the the east coast mountain ranges south of the glacial maximum is pretty much the same the bed rock is granite not sedimentary due to the age oh the mountains
So when all that ice melted and slid across the land.. that didnt change north carolinas landscape/topography, or wild life at all huh? Okay... if nothing changed, then the same mammoths and same people would still be here too. Come on
Which one there’s many from the sources like Jewish and Muslim in Israel all remixed by the British who took over the world through the global money, politics, and religions. Through labels that limit minds and remixed crafted language through psychology. English isn’t natural. God also in Hebrew is Elohim which means “The Gods” which is a crafted religious loop that religions are from that trace back to Middle East clay tablets and Ethiopia. None of these writings about about God they’re about Elohim. These things are used to control the global population via money, politics, and religion. Please educate yourself on this reality. Thanks.
you need to educate yourself on the archeological, mathematical, genetic, astronomical, biological, geological, and historic data instead of blindly following Ken Ham and whatever 7 day Adventist quacks you decided fits your own beliefs- and show more respect to others scientific work. People like you are the reason many Americans still think the mound builders are from the lost tribes of Israel l.
