Jumped down in one of the creeks adjacent to my site in Lawrence Co Tenn this April after all the flooding rains and stuff was all over...some pouring out of the floodplane bank across from the high ground where I normally find my stuff. Spent about 8 hrs over 2 days just in this creek and brought back about 25lbs of rock and chert. Some very weird stuff that I've never seen, wish I could get it in someones more knowledgeable hands. Some of it's really water stained and some looks like it just came out of the ground. It's killing me knowing I won't be back til around November!!!

Thanks for looking guys, I didn't realize stone pieces are that rare...consider myself blessed. In the 5 years I've been visiting I never ventured in the creek til this spring. I don't believe anyone else has been walking it either, it's pretty small and very shallow spring fed.

So did you really find all of them just this week?

Not this week, back in April when I was down south as I stated in the first post. I spent 5 weeks in the area helping a bud on his farm and found all that stuff plus more in 2 visits in the creek. I'm hoping word didn't get out because it accessible with a moderate walk, the fields on either side are private...owned by my bud.

I asked cause grooved axes are rare in Tennessee and even more rare in Georgia. Celts still rare but not like a ax head that’s grooved like those

Oooh, oooh, I want the beautiful “Mushroom” appearing in middle of 3rd & 4th Group pictures... when you’re done/tired of it, that is, of course... I’ll come to your Weird Creek to fetch it personally, b/c want to rub your head for good luck! You have extraordinary finds……so bizarre!!! (Don’t share this, but arrowheads lowest on my WishList..... shhhhh!!)
(I think conventionally, Mushroom possibly Driller, and little perpendicular-laying guy last row looks like “flipping finger”, possibly perforator/gouger/graver.....)Last edited by Cecilia; 08-17-2019, 04:39 PM.Digging in GA, ‘bout a mile from the Savannah River
