In this video we're going to a very rare archaeological site from the Ice Age that I've been working on where I've made some big discoveries. Let's see if we can figure out what was happening at this site nearly 13,000 years ago or more!

These type of large Ice Age sites are very rare from this region. I'm sure that there are many more archaeological sites like these out there, we just need to find them!

@therealdesidaru Месяц назад

Outer ring for the males, inner ring for the females? Are the flakes different sizes in the rings? THe outer ring might do general work and the inner ring works points to a finer detail? The more infuential or important family or older members work in the protected inner ring.Just some ideas. Could be anything. Interesting stuff.

@Unit8200-rl8ev Месяц назад

My speculation is that "aggregation" groups would have been the norm, and that lone families camping or migrating by themselves would be an anomaly. There are advantages to camping and migrating as a group that are not available to small family units. I also think that the first people to migrate into the Americas were probably a sizable Tribal group, and not a small, isolated family group. Tribal cohesion supports reproduction, security, group activities, skill-sharing, and cultural continuity.

@jamesdunn9609 Месяц назад

The idea of these scattered family groups coming together during the Spring Migration at these aggregation sites makes a lot of sense. These people seemed to understand the dangers of inbreeding and annual gatherings of extended family groups would allow for the arrangement of marriages and trade of small goods like jewelry and textiles. This is a very well done presentation!

As an open field artifact searcher this is truly informative. Now i have a much different outlook on areas in East Central Ohio where there are large flake areas and fields with very large very out of place flint nodules. Seasonal camps amongst swamps and creeks? Now my mind is forming much firmer thoughts on ancient residents here.

@OkieSketcher1949 Месяц назад

Very interesting and well presented. I’ve looked for ancient Native American sites since I was a kid. Found several in eastern and southern Oklahoma. The projectile points, scrapers, awls, and hammer stones look a bit different here as compared to what I have found in Tennessee, Florida, Texas, and a few other places. I find it interesting to look around these sites and wonder just what they were looking at way back when. Why did they choose to set up camp where they did? Your video was one of the better explanations. BTW, in the four years I lived in a small portion of the Hudson Highlands I never found so much as a flake of chert, flint, or any other stone much less a projectile point or scraper and I did look for them.

@JayCicconeArchaeology Месяц назад

That's great! I actually do quite a bit of work in the Hudson Highlands, small world! There are some really nice caves and rockshelters there. There is a type of conglomerate that has chert in it that the cultures were using to make their chipped stone tools from.

@capt.bart.roberts4975 Месяц назад

From my experience of Stone Age Flint Mines. Which are plentiful on my native, chalk downlands. They were in use for many years, the later years being more organised and planned. If your diagram is to be gone by, it looks like there were four mines in the central location and the production of worked flint going on in the sites around the middle four. There's a similar arrangement in the mines about two hundred yards from where I sit. You can't avoid flint on this land, we even build walls and buildings from it. It was still being worked well into the latter 19th Century, for high quality flint to use in flintlock mechanisms. Used for everything from pocket pistols, to massive naval 64pounders.

@JayCicconeArchaeology Месяц назад

Wow that's very interesting! The 16 sites are all just workshop/campsites, the actual quarries and mines are set a little ways away from those 16 sites. I didn't show the main quarries and mines in the film although I certainly should have. Since most of my research is on prehistoric quarries and mines I will definitely be showing those types of activity areas in future videos.

I think you are spot on. I've been making wigwam/tipi/wikiups for 5 decades and have found that most local materials work well into 13-15' diameter shelters...giving enough head room and sleep room for small "families". Part of that involves the time it takes to make the dwelling. Also the weight of the cover to carry on following seasonal migrations. I think I'll subscribe.

Awesome video! I surface hunt an agricultural field that is a multi occupational site. It sits about 3 miles from where the glacier stopped during the younger dryas. The glacier receding left small ponds and lakes and I believe that’s why it’s a multi occupational site. Like most sites it’s out of convenience. Such as your sites. IMO they picked that location because they had material to work and they could see the migrating herds from that ridge. Here in Illinois after the glacier receded it was like an Alaskan tundra. The natives would hunt caribou and camp on any high ground close to a water source. IMO I think they picked the higher ground so they could watch for migrating herds and predators.

@randomyank7777 28 дней назад

I live in this region , & although I'm no archeologist , what you are saying makes far more sense than the academic establishment . The tools changed with the environments . Earlier Clovis styles , for the bigger game , like mega fauna . The later styles , for the smaller game that was available after . Climate change is inevitable , & it happens in cycles . Your research is compatible with your findings , & you explain it very well . The Indigenous people did exactly what you described , as you explained it , for the very reasons given . They moved with the game , & the seasons , utilizing any resources they knew about , along the way . Well done , & presented .

Having worked on some hill top locations, the build up of soil can be surprising. A key factor is envornment and the surface topography of the hill top. If the enviroment is dry, windy, and dusty enoiugh, and there are surface irregualrities that can act as sediment traps, the accumulated sediment may reach two or more meters in depth. Working in Israel, we worked on a settlement where many experts insisted that there would be little deposit because it would all have washed down the hill. We were pleasantly surprised by how much we recovered.

@JayCicconeArchaeology Месяц назад

Yes they inhabited the Hudson Valley after the glaciers had melted and receded back northward. During the time that these cultures were using this site the glaciers were probably somewhere around the St. Lawrence River area at the northern top of New York State.

My friend was looking for a stone to build a step for his camp, when he lifted this particular stone he discovered it was actually a prehistoric fire-pit with a cache of stone tools in various stages of being chipped down, After this he started studying lidar maps and soon discovered a bunch possibly 100’s of prehistoric circular hole dwellings and they have been dated to somewhere around 8-12 thousand years, Almost immediately after the ice receded, however there is little interest in excavating these sites because most of the sites are on private land.
