Largest Blade Cache Ever Found In Mississippi And The Incredible Story Behind It! Arrowhead Hunting 

A man as nice as Gary seems to be, he deserves it . Humble man.

I cannot imagine how exciting that would be!!!!!!

It certainly was a privilege to see those on person. I'm glad you did an interview with him it's a amazing story. The stuff we dream about! Take care my friend.🏹

That’s an awesome cache. Glad you could share it.

Wow magnificent story, they are things that every hunter dreams of. Not long ago, my friend Pepe and I arrived at a place where we found 65 complete points and about 80 broken ones. Soon we will pass the video. Blessings to the whole team and congratulations on this interview with Gary.

Yep that's the stuff dreams are made of for sure! I've only found 1 cache and it was 6 hammer stones and nutting stones lined up in 2 rows from smallest to largest. Incredible to think someone placed them there thousands of years ago and never returned. A cache is one of those monumental finds that stays with you forever

Thanks for sharing Spike. Congrats on the epic find Gerry

Congratulations to you all!! it was so great to hear Gary's interview! Congratulations to you Gary. God bless.

Congratulations Gerry . Great video Spike .

Listening to him tell his story reminds me so much of what I went through. Finding a cache is something that you'll think about every day of your existence.

WOW!!! what an AMAZING Find!!!!! Thanks for sharing this it is so inspiring!!

Spike, the video turned out very well, excellent job.

That was awesome Spike! Amazing story finding that many artifacts in one wad! Thanks for sharing!

Simply amazing!

Wow! What a discovery! I would have given just about anything just to have been able to have witnessed that!

That’s mind boggling!! Totally awesome👍🇺🇸

Very interesting Steve 🇬🇧

That's amazing the Great Spirit was with you that day

Thanks for sharing spike. Real cool story. I found what I think is an artifact. Never found anything before. I'm curious if you could look at it and tell me your thoughts. If you have time for me, let me know the best way to get you some pics. Thanks again. Always look forward to your videos

Sehr schön! Rock'n'Roll Baby 🤟

Am I right in assuming these are mostly preforms? And that when needed they would each be formed into the tool/ weapon desired?.

This reminds me of when I first started metal detecting. I had only owned my first metal detector for about six months, and I found three Union plates, and one confederate Virginia state seal belt buckle. All within about a month of each other lol. Since then, I haven't found any plates in 20 years ha ha..

Hello sir. I live in Pensacola and recently found 2 arrow heads hidden in the back of a piece of furniture that was made in New Orleans in the 1800's. I sure would like to know how old and what they are. To think a man held these hundreds or thousnads of years ago shocks me.

Sweet😎🏹

TeeeeeeeeeeQuuuuuuuuu!!! WOW!

Would these be considered pre-forms ?

New york state the town of wellsville new york.. The river I went with a few friends. And we found quite a few arrow heads in the river.. As well as a farmers field.. After they got done plowing the field, we was allowed out there to find arrow heads and spearheads.. I found a pounding stone.. That thing was in the river.. We had a blast doing it .. The man's name was norman ives.. Is full blood seneca .. The seneca nation of indians.. That man was fun to be with.. He's been gone for quite a while and I miss going out and doing this.. Right now i'm stuck stranded in arkansas.. Not too sure where to go around here..

I live in MN. how do you find these places to go and relic hunt? I live in an area where we have mounds and a good history of native Americans in my area, but I don't know where to start. If you have any pointers for me I would sure appreciate it thank you

I want to ask if any of you guys remember Ron Chatham or Bobby Boyd? Thank you

This is pretty neat I don’t even know how I came across this but I’m from Mississippi and I might try to go to the next one in April

'In the state of Mississippi' So you're telling me there's larger blade caches than this???

Just amazing and thank you for sharing this video with us.❤️🦉 Blessings, Teresa

How do you top a 115 blade cache adrenaline rush? Aint gona happen lol. Awesome story.

Hmm, think I might just know those fellas that found that cache 😂

I got the chance to meet Mr. Gerry at the artifact shack a couple years ago and see a few of these he had brought to display, absolutely amazing!

From a future archaeologist’s perspective, kudos to him for understanding that separating the cache would take away from its historical significance. I’m glad they decided to keep it together ❤ congratulations on such an awesome find!!

Great stuff right there!! Love the vid Spike!! 👍🏻😎

I am 82,when I was in my early 30ies l hunted arrow heads and just loved doing it.I lost my collection in my divorce,it hurt.

So amazing thanks for sharing this story with us

What a treasure and blessing. Lost history if not for luck and effort. Any idea of the time period of the cache?

What type of material would those Blades be made of down there in the great state of Mississippi?

What era is this cash from? I'm thinking archaic, but not sure.

Amazing. Really hope to see you guys out hunting again soon! Your videos are always excellent!

I found a cashe of 74 tools /preforms but they were not as nice as them. That was a day I will never forget and I’m sure he won’t either.

I've found a cashe of five axe heads in central Florida was only cashe I found but was definitely a incredible feeling was so happy being my first cashe but haven't found anything like it since then

Are those from the Choctaw Indians or even before them?

Omg 😲 boy o boy i wish i find something like that congratulations to him for that

I was just about to say that!!! I have a very good friend of mine that always says”You ain’t gonna find em on the couch!” AMEN BROTHER!!!!

I watch your video s but have never commented. But I just had to when I saw it was 115 blades cache. I live in East Tennessee and have hunted for 40 years . I found a cache of 42 blades early in my career in January 86 only 2 were particularly showing at waters edge, I felt around in the water about a 3 foot area, most were in a 2 foot area. Looked the spot every since 86 found no more. 36 years later in November 2022, I saw 2 inches of what was a 4.5 inch by 3 inches wide at the base blade. Pick it up and underneath was another one and one on it s edge, they were just stacked on each other all in a tite 1.5 foot area. There were basically 3 different sizes the largest on top and the smallest on bottom. The number 115 and 1 arrowhead don't really know if it was part of it or not but it was rite with the blades. So it did happen twice in a lifetime but it was nearly a lifetime between the two finds.

Spike, thanks for the videos. Any show plans for the Tupelo area? Every point I've ever found has been special to me. Is it true what we find in North Mississippi North Alabama are from the Woodland period, 400 to 700 years old? My dad, who is 76, growing up on a farm in N Alabama said they were so common people thought nothing of seeing them on the ground.

Awesome video guys enjoyed it very much🙏👍😀

What time line you think they are

Very nice video and what a great way to honor them man and the find.

Awesome story and collection!! You have to really wonder why they didn’t come back for those??

Great story, thanks for showing Spike👍🏻

Omg 😲 that is a awesome and beautiful story congratulations on your life time haul

I believe they were sitting in these creeks making tools. What a day to find that cache.

Awesome Awesome! That is a Day of Days! What Dreams are made of!

What was the type/age of the cache blades?

I’d be worried those were for a ceremonial burial.

Great story I enjoyed it thanks

is there any indication of age?

Love your channel

excellent

Are they Archaic, Woodland or Paleo?

Thanks Spike

How old are they? Est?

Excellent!

All Tallahatta.

😁😁😉🙂😊

I grew up head hunting on family land at what they called "the little river' in Columbia Ms; certainly never found a cache like that but we never went without finding several at least
