Hey guys-
I am new to the forum and excited to be posting. I am also new to arrowhead hunting, but in my first two outings have found a couple points and a few other curious items. I will post pictures as soon as I can get my camera to work.
I live in Omaha, NE (anyone else from this area?). My finds thus far have been while creek walking in a small tributary in the lower Platte River valley. This particular area is affiliated with the Central Plains tradition— a term used by archeologists to define the vast prehistoric Native American population that lived in Nebraska from A.D. 1000 to 1400. Does anyone have any finds from this area?
A couple questions for you:
1. How often do you walk the same stretch of creek? I realize that it probably depends on how much rain the area is getting. Would you/do you search the same stretch even if it hasn't rained? After every rain?
2. I haven't searched any fields yet, but would like to. Do you just pull into a farm's driveway and knock on the door for permission?
I hope that I don't sound like a fool with these questions... any input is greatly appreciated!
