Found this Native American point today in Massachusetts at a site known to have had humans as early as 12,000 years ago, pretty much right when the glaciers receded, leaving grasslands that mastodons & mammoths grazed on. Humans hunted said megafauna in same area. Based on point shape/type, this was likely formed by a human 8,000-10,000 years ago. And it was tumbling in water and dirt for millennia, until 2 hours ago. #history #naturewalk #usa #artifact #newengland #paleo #nature #hobbies https://video.nostr.build/45d8ab64d3635147950d993c630ddae39f0348e5c13c1223d748866f7683e336.mp4
It must feel amazing to hold in your hand something that was created by another human tens of thousands of years ago.
I’m now listening to this episode on Rogan and thoroughly enjoying it:

It is surreal. Such a direct human connection from holding it, but such fundamentally different experiences & worldviews held by the creator vs the finder millennia later. My mind goes in loops on this stuff…
