Awesome finds. I'm new at MDing but finding Indian artifacts like those arrow heads would be awesome. I plan on doing the shores of the Mohawk river in the Capital district area this year. Any suggestions of where and where not to concentrate? Thanks!

Just set your metal detector on Indian artifact mode. It will discriminate everything out except arrowheads and stone tools.....
......... kidding.

Thanks, there was a large IROQUOIS village near where i live, also many small camps over hundreds of years. ONEIDA, IROQUOIS, SENECA to name a few--if interested you could google the town ouquaga [oquaga, oneaquaga] its spelled alot of ways, thats close to my home. alot of indian culture, and rev. war era history.

hi diggings. great finds man. i live in central PA and the susquehanna runs right by me. even closer to me yet, theres a tributary that comes from the susquehanna called the swatara creek which the susquehannock tribe lived along. swatara comes from the susquehannock word Swahadowry or schaha-dawa meaning "where we feed on eels" . im new to taking hunting seriously and havnt found anything personally but cant wait to get out there once the days warm up.

Talk about coming in fast and quick. Nice post. I am very interested as my Dad was from Pa and my gg grandmother was Iroquois. Nice to see a little culture in my family at last. Do you still get out and hunt? Thanks for sharing.
