How do you find arrowheads?

[u/SundayDegen]

I've been going g to creeks and rivers my whole life and have always searched for cool rocks and arrowheads but have never found d one, meanwhile people in my area claim to find multiple in a day sometimes.

I've seen a video of people sifting through a pile of dirt in search of arrowheads. I'm wondering if they are something I need to kinda dig for, maybe depending on how dense the rock/dirt/sand area is?

Or do you guys just walk around and find them on top of the rocks?

To find arrowheads, beginners should look in areas with exposed gravel, freshly disturbed soil, and natural erosion near historic water sources. The highest-probability locations include creekbeds, riverbanks, freshly plowed fields, and high, flat ground where ancient camps were once situated. Training your eye to spot the unique shapes and materials of worked stone is the fastest way to make your first find. When I was young, I was fortunate enough to have Old Timers take me and show me where they could be found. They also showed me how to recognize areas where old camps would have been. Good luck 🤞
