Re: Arrowheads on Property

Thank you all for the info. We may try to go to the Dig Fest on Sunday to have a look around. We would love to know who/what came and went through our area and share the history with our son as he grows.

Oddly enough our son has led to some of my better finds. Little does the 18 month old know that his wanderings in our pasture have led to many great arrowhead discoveries.

If we do decide to invite anyone out to our property to further explore what we have what would you all recommend we do to insure that we do not open ourselves to a person(s) who may have other intentions while digging our place?

I will get some pictures of what we have found thus far and posts them, if I can figure out how to do that.

SH, if you could please send me info on obtaining a few free passes to the Dig Fest we would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks again for all the info all!

Re: Arrowheads on Property

I'll tell Richard & Mary that you are just visiting.
Stop at the garage and sign the waiver form ( mandatory for anyone on the property, digger or not ) Be sure to look at the pictures on the walls, thats about 15 years worth of history of the ranch. Assuming you will not be there at the crack of dawn.....everyone will be at the dig site so you may not see anyone at all around the garage..
From the garage go straight ahead and right turn on the "main road"..there will be a few orange arrows along the way. It's at the far north end of the property so you will see the asphalt road as you make that last left turn down the hill to the site.

Once there ask around for me or Richard.

Re: Arrowheads on Property

Also, another option is to call the Texas Archaeology Society or TSA and let them know your intentions of wanting someone to look your property over. They will not come in and take over as many people assume. You retain all your own rights as any land owner in Texas. If they locate a camp,They will not destroy the integrity of your site. They will also return all points and artifacts to the land owner. They just want to document where they came from and how these ancients lived. These are very scrupulous people in general. These people will help you understand what you really have and will also help properly date your site. If you let them do this, they will not dig up all your camp. They wont even dig the sweet spot out of it. Then once you know what you have, you can make an intelligent decision on how you want to proceed. If you wanna proceed, google them or let me know and I can get you in touch with them. There are alot of good hearted arrowhead diggers out there, but be careful who you share your treasure with.
