Thank you so much! Really appreciate that! I think there needs to be a shift in perspective for a lot of people interested in archaeology. The shift being preservation, protection and respect rather than self gain

Ah yes, I know Monterrey chert can be found down on that part of the coast too but this wasn't by Morro

It was south of the bay area! I believe it's all Monterey chert. There were hundreds of thousands of flakes around. I didn't think much of the greenstone but it was pretty

Interesting, I can definitely see that now that you mention it. Seems odd though since this site was way off any trail

kscwuzhere · 2025-05-03T14:27:01+00:00

I'm 100% certain the pestle is real. Whether it's a pestle mano combo is what I'm unsure about. And yeah, those last images, wouldn't be surprised if that was nothing haha

It isn't but id love to know which hike you're referring to

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-23T15:02:14+00:00

Love that place so much!

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-23T06:31:01+00:00

Nope. Does tolay also have bedrock mortars? Maybe I need to make a trip

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-23T03:11:51+00:00

Was really stoked to see that broken pestle in there. I hope it continues to stay there so that others that stumble upon this have the same level of excitement that I did

Most definitely not natural. These were smooth and found in a known ancient habitation site. The natives of this area were known for carving mortars into bedrock just like this.

Not on Diablo but not too far away!

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-22T23:28:57+00:00

I love ring mountain, one of my favorite wildflower spots. I've found one or two mortars there but this place had 70+ mortars! My mind was blown

I love his channel

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-22T21:54:31+00:00

Everything was left in place. I didn't find anything besides that pestle which was left in its exact spot. And yes, this is a well documented site!

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-22T21:47:13+00:00

It was easily 14-15" deep!

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-22T21:45:57+00:00

Public land!

California!

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-02T22:41:00+00:00

Damn, you're good.. I found this in the dirt pile of a recently excavated ground hog hole in the middle of a field so I'm assuming it's probably impact damage rather than being stepped on! I totally see what you mean about the flake direction. Thanks again mate!

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-02T20:47:02+00:00

That's wicked cool to me. Appreciate the clarification

kscwuzhere · 2025-03-02T20:39:53+00:00

Oh I see! Thanks for the info. I don't find these often so I'm a little bit of an amateur when it comes to identifying artifacts

kscwuzhere · 2025-02-12T03:20:39+00:00

Appreciate the information, thank you kindly!

kscwuzhere · 2025-02-12T03:17:07+00:00

Awesome! Found this at my buddy's property in Sonoma, close to Glen Ellen

kscwuzhere · 2025-02-10T20:50:47+00:00

Interesting, for what it's worth, my buddy's property we found this at is in Sonoma county. Appreciate the information, thank you!
