VERY OLD JUNKYARD

[8mygritz]

found in freshly plowed field in chatham co.nc last wkend.a friend of mine invited me dn to search a field that had been plowed for the 1st time in about 30 yrs..he had 100's of pristine points,scrapers & others that he had found yrs.ago.there were so many that he never bothered to pick up the broken ones.they were everywhere & i found these in just a couple of days.it had rained a few days before so the tops were washed off & were easy to spot....some were sitting on top like toadstools.used chart to id a few.others are shards & chips.(8000 or 10,000 bc-1700's).

I wouldn't be wasting my time here. I'd be back there at first light.

Looks like one of those places you dream about! I'd set up camp there. Tony

Man it looks like you needed a little red wagon to haul all of those back. Looks like a great place.

Nice artifacts and wonderful site. Glad you got to go down and hunt it, and hopefully it will get turned on a regular basis so that you can hunt it again. A spot like that should produce artifacts all summer long as more soil washing takes place. Hopefully whatever crop they plant there will leave some ground exposed for you. you got a nice variety of point types and ages there. HH

Id be there after every rain. I have a field I have been walking for 2 years now since they turned it and it keeps producing not as fast as the 1st year but some are still popping out. I have to say the ax is very nice and would like to see a single photo of it in hand. Thanks for sharing

I like the chart with the points by its description. HH
