We were thinking the one site is much older than the other. The place with the bigger darts/points has zero pottery. The other place has quite a bit of pottery but mostly triangle points. We know the bow/arrows and pottery came from later time periods. The smaller ones are more plentiful but they are harder to spot. I seem to have an eye for them but look past the bigger ones. I found 5 the other day in one trip. My buddy found only 1 point and it was a wide white quartz one about 3 inches long. Within a foot of my boot print.
McMinn. It's kinda both. It's a field by a big creek but they haven't plowed it in prob 20 years now. It gets the no till treatment but along the tractor trails and wash outs, I have a few hot spots I've always found chippings and points in. I would be in hog heaven if they ever plow it again but that's probably unlikely. You guys here opened the creek hunting door for me as I had never looked there before. I've found several on gravel bars in the creek itself. Also found a few sifting the gravel bars as well. My father Inlaw hunted this same field back in the 70s-90s when they plowed it every year and it's unreal the stuff he has from it. My current property where I live is almost identical terrain, complete with the same creek that goes by the other place where the relics are but the creek here is all sand and no gravel. There are a lot of springs on my place but I have only found 3 points here and little to no flint or chert but lots of limestone. The other farm is loaded with chert and flint.
