We are if the same thought on the nutting stones, especially the small ones. They are most likely anvils used in the pressure flaking as you said. Take care Cliff.

Well, that just lit my bulb! I have a huge stone that has an approximate 12"x12" surface area that is covered with dimples on one side with about half as many on the other. The majority of them are uniform in size and they're the only reason I noticed it at all because it looked like a giant stone die lying there among the rocks as if it had rolled away from the old gods while they threw dice on the mountain top long ago. It weighs about 25-30 lbs. Interestingly, it was on private property in a mountainous area of Tennessee and the friends who owned it said they'd also discovered a cave on the property that still contained artifacts such as pottery and tools. Few were told about the cave and none were told the location as they wanted it to remain as they'd found it. My stone is so odd looking I couldn't imagine how or why it had been used like it had, but your comment makes the most sense of any I've heard so far. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks John.

Thanks and good luck.

You're welcome sir!

Thanks Will.

@@HeartbreakerRelics yessir. Rekon I'll be here for the duration 😎

Your welcome thank you

Thanks! lol Wondered how long it was going to take to get a comment on it.

Thanks for watching and for the great comment. We appreciate it.

no because you didn't find mako shark teeth with graphite and golddusted flintridge point

There's no substitute for experience but maybe these little videos will help someone understand better. I wish I had something like this years ago. I wouldn't be so far behind now lol. Spike

Thanks! That is awesome! I'm going to try to catch up on some of your stuff tonight.

Yes, in Georgia quartz was one of the primary materials used for points.

Thanks. It all goes back to a video we dropped a few weeks ago. These were pre-Columbian groups for the most part. There are no records of group structure before then. We don't know if they had tribes or groups or even what they would have called themselves.

We had the opportunity to hunt a couple caves or rock shelters years ago. We did find anything mainly because we didn't know what we were doing. Keep going and good luck.

We buy our frames from different manufacturers such as T&B Case Co. and Hatchet Creek Cases. We also get some from Hobby Lobby. They are held in the case by the friction between the glass and the foam backing.

@@HeartbreakerRelics nice! I have literally buckets of arrowheads + artifacts that I found in Washington state.. some day want to display them. Thanks👍 😊

If you will send me some pics to my email I'll see if I can find them in a book I have. spike39560@gmail.com

@@HeartbreakerRelics Do you have another email? Tried sending some pics to that email but received a message saying the address was invalid. Thanks!

@@michaeldeloach6610 that's the only one I have. It's not invalid. Try going to the web page www. heartbreakerrelics.com and sending it through the email link there.

We found one in Catahoula parish Louisiana I think it was, that would fit on a dime.

They are amazing, arent they

I wonder what the purpose of them were. Any ideas?

Banner stones were not used as additional weight on a atlatl. It was used as a tool.

They were used as counter weight on the atlatl, the throwing handle. We plan on doing a video on the atlatl soon.

As a matter of fact we do not. We have not found one point in Harrison county.

Good question. Many blades were ground on one side or were ground on the end for hafting. Some have even suggested they may have been held with a piece of leather like a glove.

Gives you 2 cutting edges also, so if one side dulls or breaks during use, you don't have to re-sharpen as often. Only my thoughts. I could very well be wrong.

@@willthethrill4073 makes sense.

We tend to agree.

They kind of both go hand in hand. Our interest mostly lies in the pre-Columbian culture though.

Thanks Stan. You're right we do not have a lot of hematite show up down here. It's not natural so would have to be brought in. We're trying to relate to those with little knowledge in the area but we do miss the boat on that at times.

When editing I cut and paste the information from the internet for the sake of time. That's where the BP comes from.

Thanks!

@@HeartbreakerRelics oh no I understand 100% god bless you all and keep making the videos I love them I’m here in southern ky the hunting is really hard right on the tn and ky central line

Why not?

You know you can say too much!
