And I get excited when I find an arrowhead.
Good going, kid!
I doubt it was planted to what end? Get on the internet?
I still excited when I find an arrowhead on our farm and I’m 60 years old and arrowheads are hardly rare but it’s fun to find them.
This find was a thrill for the kid who might develop a lifelong interest in archeology.
This is what I lived near in Oregon.
Look 20 or 30 feet up the hillside in some old tree roots, where no one else bothers to look. That’s where you’ll find the good stuff...
‘Course, take my advice with a grain of salt. I never find anything. I’m lucky if I can find my keys in the morning. :-)
That’s where rocks are turned into sand.
“...an approximate age of such a find.”
H found it this month:)
The shark had gold teeth.
Last year I found what I thought might be a fossilized egg. This year I finally caught up with an expert. He got pretty excited and felt it was probably an ancient crocodile egg. He was going to double check with a paleontologist but never got back to me.
It’s a fossilized egg or a really really good concretion.
Either way I mounted it on a cupped piece of brown black obsidian. looks impressive. I did put a picture of an ancient crocodile behind it, Kind of like those “serving suggestions” on a cereal box:)
Thanks Gene Eric.

You are correct.
Low Country near the river intersects. I have many.
Dangerous Diving. Not me.
Get the She-Crab soup while there.
Used to find teeth like that in North Carolina, at Camp LeJeune USMC Base beaches in the 70’s................
Ping!.......................
I hope you don’t have any kids...If you do, I feel sorry for them...For you, not so much...You’re not worth the time...
If even read the excerpt, you would see the boy was participating in a fossil-hunting excursion near Summerville.
But no...You don’t need to read anything, do you???
You already know..........it all...
I thought it was obvious by my questions, that I didn’t read the article. My comment wasn’t directed at the article. Your comment triggered my distain of over praising parents. Your response to another comment had a hint of that to me. Why parents do see that over praising children cripples them in adulthood. They grow up facing the smallest of challenges and can’t cope. They then rely on their parents and wind up living with them after college. And the kicker is that the parents are clueless as to what happened. I hope my further explanation clarifies my reaction. Good day.
Premium Gravel Piles?
Plant.
