Title: Ice melt archaeology
Post by: WhistlingBadger on February 01, 2026, 10:30:39 pm

A friend who knows I'm into this kind of thing sent me this really interesting video.  It seems that with climate change, they're finding not just projectile points, but complete arrows and atlatls darts with wood, sinew, and even feathers intact.  Great stuff.

Pretty amazing finds. That has to be an incredible feeling to make such finds. The connection with its past. Kinda makes me want to look too.
