.Good decision to sift in that place my friend. That knife, rabbit tip and that Adena are very beautiful pieces. I have a good time with you. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A GREAT YEAR 2023.
Another great video Scott. I'm calling that a good day for you. I get a kick out of you getting excited with each find. I also like The locations that you find to hunt. Maybe some of it'll rub off someday! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Jim, that was a good day for sure! The river has been up and down with a lot off high water the last month or so. Should be good hunting next time.
Great finds Scott , the rifle flints are probably French trade flints . The French had a number of trading post throughout this area They would trade guns , powder , and flints , for furs , keep looking
Great video, Scott. Love your energy and your videos are always informative. Great finds and keep the videos coming. Funny you mentioned Ryan's channel. I've been making self bows since the late 80's. Love Ryan's channel.
U should rename your site 'Clegg's Gym Workout' seeing how all these efforts probably beat out a full workout at any gym!! Hey........how about holding a Clegg's giveaway where lucky subscribers can enter to win one of these great finds??!! You absolutely make me miss my West Virginia time attending WVWC, Clegg!! Jim C.
Hi Scott I loved you Wampus cat video ..I'm going to send you a gift certificate to the ASPCA , Then you and the kitty can be friends , great job Scott ,be safe
Hi Scott was just a joke about the ASPCA I really enjoy your videos , very informative , how do you rate your rake sifter , compared to the old one ? Stay safe I know you won't be at the river for a few days . It is high up here my way in Rayland
Woah 👌 you did it again! 👏 exquisite pieces 👌 , awesome info on the jacks reef, I find quite a bit of em 🤙cool hematite piece also 😎🤙 , good luck out there brother, your vids are always entertaining ✌️
Hunting is a literal addiction for me. Can not wait for more videos. Wish I had more time ta hunt. Until then thank you. this is as close as I can get. For now!
That little black scraper could've been used to scrape sinew of their animal skins too. That straining noise you make whenever you try to lift something cracks me up every time!
Wonderful video once again!!!! Wow! I found a really strange polished artifact made of Baraboo pipestone and wish I could show you and your subscribers a picture of it. I just don't know how to do that. If anyone has an idea of how I can get help identifying it let me know. It's small and cylindrical but tapers at both ends. It has a groove all the way around in the middle and also little groove on both ends. My first thought was a net weight, but I've learned that Baraboo pipestone is rare and was only used for very special or spiritual items like pipes, gorgets and ear spools. I've even been in contact with a guy that's writing a book about Baraboo pipestone and he has never seen anything like it, and is not sure what it was. I would love to hear more opinions!
@@cleggsadventures thank you so much for responding.yay! That's a really good idea. I haven't made a RU-vid video in years, mostly because my internet sucks and it's hard to upload anything. I live out in the boonies. Haha. I've been having some great luck near my house finding artifacts so maybe come spring I'll make a video ! Keep up the great work man! Before you know it you'll have 100k subs!
Hey Scott, I've watched most of your videos from a different device. I picked up my phone so I could comment on a video from 2 years ago titled " Ohio river surface hunting after the floods". Where you found a triangular hematite piece that I have a theory about. Maybe it was a template for the points they were making then. Size, shape, thickness and the tally mark could be the width of the base. That would help the tool maker keep the points uniform. It's fun to ponder what they used some of those less obvious artifacts for. I'm an Army vet from Ohio. I have enjoyed your videos and look forward to more. Cheers.
Thanks for responding Clegg. I see that you are attentive and reply to all or most comments. That's cool. I wanted to share another theory about the stones you find that are the volume of 2 or 3 fists, and a little flatter than round, with a rough, shallow hole pecked in the middle of each side. I'll bet that was for enabling them to pick up the stone out of the coals of the fire with a couple sticks and use it for a bed warmer. I guess we'll never know for sure what some of those artifacts were used for but it's fun to ponder about. I can see where the notches at the tip of the hematite triangle would be for tying it talisman style to represent status, perhaps as standard bearer of point uniformity. Or maybe to dummy- cord it so he wouldn't lose it! Lol
@@bencattaneo2491 That could be. If you saw me go to that fire pit, all those small fired hard stones…. I think they were for heating water and such. Set them atop the campfire ring stones, to keep them warm when they’re needed. I thought maybe a small bed frame close to the floor would stay warm with some of these tossed underneath. Just a theory but possible
I continue to be amazed at your knowledge? You know the names of the materials these ancient artifacts are made from and generally how the items were used? I can only read books on the subject now. I have seen to many sunrises and sunsets and acquired some of the problems that occur with time. I also see land developed that I use to get a lot of artifacts off of? It is not as easy as it once was when you had a free range? I enjoy your videos .
This may seem strange, but my wife is in the medical field and says you appear to have jugular vein distention which could indicate heart problems. Hopefully it’s nothing but I felt like I should let you know! Love the channel.
Appreciate the concern. I have regular checkups, every 6 months. My health issue is my spine. I have 3 vertebrae fused in my neck and another causing trouble now.
I'm watching so many of your videos, I'm forgetting if this is the one you made reference to guys using dish pans or something as sifters, and you show how you built yours and the rockers. What dish pans are you talking about? I've been thinking what I could use as a comparable sifter. Thanks! Appreciate your time. I watched another fellow and he has the comments turned off. 😢😕
@@cleggsadventures sorry, I misspoke. It is in this video at about 12:14, you mentioned, "a lot of guys use those dishwasher screens for sifters..." I'm not sure what you're talking about. What is a dishwasher screen?
@@cleggsadventures ah! I have worked in a school cafeteria in the wash room. The racks they use to run the plates, trays and utensils through the dishwasher. I'm not so gifted to make one like yours, but I'm mulling some thoughts around as an alternative. Thanks!
Man, there is a field next to the ocean in New Brunswick Canada, every time i go there i find all kindsa tools and effigies on the beach and even crazier stuff out at low tide ( where the field used to extend to) Lotsa fire rocks too! It is truly fascinating and I've acquired quite a collection in the past years. Some things so crazy looking i can't explain! Some say they are just rocks and don't understand the history. You inspire me to keep believing everyday! I'd love to share some pics with you one day! Cheers!
I LOVE your videos! Thanks so much for sharing. I wish I could have adventures like yours. Just FYI, a broken piece of pottery is a “sherd,” which is an abbreviation of the word “potsherd.” A sharp, broken piece of rock, glass, or other material is called a “shard.” All the potters and archaeologists of the world will be happy if you refer to pottery bits as “sherds“ rather than shards. 😊
Thank you Kelly! Thanks for the info! That is something I didn’t know. Next time I find one, I shall educate the audience. Sherd not shard (on pottery)👍
Love the channel, new here, it blows my mind that you go out and find numerous artifacts! People search their lives for one, you get one every couple minutes! Just crazy!!
Anyone who thinks that obviously don't Scott . I have personally met and also sifted with him. He does not make anything up. He's a very very honest man.
