Some of the stuff I have found while farming over the years, good points/broken points/scrapers/Celt/hatchet head.
Almost all were found while sitting on a tractor cultivating or side dressing anhydrous…I would be watching just one row back and forth and spot them , and I picked up quite a few horse shoes.
Like a dumbass I sold a few of the nice ones I found like turkey tails. Guy that worked for us found a big hatchet head on our place then gave it to his son in law.
They find a bunch of artifacts in southern Ohio, must have had way more Indians there than we did.
We had a huge Indian battle here around 1800 in the southern part of our county at Ft Recovery, over a third of the continental army was killed.
Chief Little Turtle Blue Jacket and some others really put it on them in the first battle. A couple years later General Anthony Wayne paid them back at the same fort and pushed them across the state half way through Indiana.
On the elk thing;
Local farmer about five miles south of us found a complete bull elk skeleton while tiling his field at a place that used to be called cranberry prairie. A 1000 acre spot that the Indians used to burn annually to keep the forest open for hunting.
The bull elk skull is in our county museum.
