artifacts

Hi, this is my first post. I've attached some photos of some carved animal/human figures that I've found in Stillwater and around Elk River, Minnesota. These are just a few of the more "obvious" pieces, so I'm pretty sure I'm not losing my mind and seeing things that aren't there (friends and...

I'm not sure if I should bother with a long detailed story so I'll try to keep it short. After getting my two little ones on the school bus and having to take my oldest oldest to get a cast for a broken ankle I headed out without a plan and just felt the need to stop at a place I had had some...

The Arroyo Colorado flooded recently my husband and I found this while walking by the Arroyo Colorado. Is it a Native American effigy??

Hello Fellow Treasure Hunters, My name is J.J. and I just got back into Metal Detecting and Artifact Hunting after taking a 10 year break (life and work got in the way). There are no clubs in Central Ohio so I'm looking for some friendly people to detect/artifact hunt with. Using a Garrett AT...

Alright guys I’m new to this forum and have been doing my own research with not much luck on online stores- I’m looking for Atocha, 1715 fleet, and or Jupiter wreck artifacts, coins, and set coins. Mostly Atocha and Jupiter wreck- as they are the more desirable atleast for me. I am looking to...

Are these artifacts or broken rocks? I’m trying to learn to identify artifacts, and I’m not sure what I’m seeing. Thanks.

I'm local and have for years been wondering how to find others with similar interests. I have a nitof an anxiety issue but I try not to let that affect my passion still I have yet to make any connections. It would be great to hear back from anyone else curious as me , anyone who has stories or...

I am including a link to a dropbox folder where there are photos of artifacts found in Central Texas that appear to be much older than all the other sites I have been on in my life. Nothing about the site fits any others. The tools are well worn and greasy when first pulled out. Many have...

Does anyone hunt for artifacts in Jefferson county, other bordering counties, or southern Indiana. If so, what in particular do you look for?

I have heard of people using topography maps to find potential places to look for arrowheads and other artifacts. What should you be looking for on these maps that would be indicators of a place a camp could've been?

What is this trench crossing in the middle of a limestone creek, and what was it used for? It's roughly 2-3 feet wide, and runs from one side of the creek to the other. It's a little over a foot deep. I've dug out parts of it a few times and found a handful of civil war bullets each time.

I would like someone to help me identify these bullets/ maybe the smaller pellet either by positively identifying them or guiding me to a source where I could possibly research them myself. I am a beginner when it comes to identifying artifacts that I find from metal detecting that do not have...

Hello. New here. I've inherited a collection of artifacts that my grandfather had. He passed away in 1971 and this collection has been boxed up since then. It is not certain where the items were collected from. He grew up and lived most of his life in Northeastern Kansas. He also owned a...

This is ODD, went out today on Main Street in Rolesville, NC and found this in a farm field. I thought I had found a V Nickel, but upon inspection everything reads backwards including the date. It has 13 stars on face, but they are all impressed versus raised. The bust faces right instead of...

Any ideas here? Maybe some old nails? I think one piece looks like part of an horseshoe but I have no idea... I'm most curious about the ones I put on the rock. Thanks:)

Hi everyone I'm new here, lately I've been finding lots of things in my yard and I'm hoping someone can help me figure it out!! Thanks :)carved tree? tools? Carved rocks? Just rocks? i am in southwest FL near a creek on a property that has had a home on it since 1930.

Got out and detected in NC and dug up a SNAKE, that's a first, here is the video: https://youtu.be/OWF7vWiXIyw Along with the snake dig, a GREAT day of discovery digging flat buttons with backmarks, 2 colonial 2 tine forks, and an excellent representative piece to a cast iron cooking pot...
