The Friday after Thanksgiving I went to GA to Civil War relic hunt with my uncle. We got to the site where some yankees had camped and he told me to keep an eye out while digging that I might find an arrowhead. He said he had found a couple at this site while digging. I kinda laughed and said OK I will.
Well I had dug a few minie balls and was in the process of digging another one when I noticed the dirt turned charcoalish black. In the previous holes there were lots of flint chards in there and I begin to think maybe my uncle wasn't so crazy after all. In the hole with the very black dirt guess what I find....
Yep. I couldn't believe what I had just done. My uncle saw me coon fingering something and came over to see what I'd dug. He started laughing and said "Well I told ya but you didn't believe me". He stood around to watch me dig the minie ball and before I could get the minie ball out of the hole guess what else I found in the hole...ANOTHER arrowhead! That site is evidently loaded with the things but the landowner don't ever plow it. But whoa boy if they ever do!! What are the chances of digging not one but TWO arrowheads out of a single random hole in the middle of a cow pasture while digging a bullet from a war not even related to indian times??
