I just wanted to let viewers and fans know. Today is December 5, 2021 and our friend here SD Dean passed away this evening. It is a sad day and we have lost a real friend and genuinely great guy.
Sorry to hear that. A cool guy with a cool passion! Blessings to SD Dean, his family and the East TN State community 🙏
I am sorry for your loss. Bless you. Was he related to Paula Dean?
So sorry for his passing
I'm very sorry to hear this. A truly humble, nice individual. The world of archeology has lost much with the passing of Mr. Dean. He possessed a wealth of knowledge regarding this part of East Tennessee. R.I.P. Mr. Dean. Condolences to all family, friends and loved ones. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Oh how sad! I loved this video. He made everything so easy to understand and it was so interesting!
This man's diligent work is a service to us all.
They thought Petrified wood was millions of years old untill Saint Mount Helens threw trees into nearby lakes like toothpicks and 20 years later they started to Petrify.
Exactly !!!
I saw his presentation in the late 70s or early 80s. I worked on my Grand-Parents farm and found a lot of arrowheads and piqued my curiosity. Still love it.
That's awesome. My grandparents lived in Hawkins county and I used to walk up and down the river in their backyard and find...SO MANY arrow heads. All different kinds too, the craftsmanship is just awe-inspiring. It's so moving to think that an actual living breathing human being MADE that, and it's STILL here! A human being with thoughts and dreams, and other people he loved and cared for. And all of those things are humbly represented in the making of that tiny fragile object, that somehow made it from then to now. Man. I have gotta stop smoking reefer before I CZcams 🤔
I got permission to hunt on a guys property headed west towards Memphis TN a few years ago, when I met with the guy to show me around he showed me all kinds of fossils and parts of dinosaur skeletons he found on my his property, but the best was when he took me out to this big limestone cliff and showed me this super long section of some sort of dinosaur tail section he was excavating, don't know what it was but it was at least 10 ft long, and that's just what we could see, I was truly shocked at what he was finding on just his 100 acres! Amazing!
I'm in Murfreesboro. I'll grab my shovel and paint brush . Let's go find some bones!!! I do find little fossils in the pee stone driveways here all the time.
The Cherokee were here well over eight thousand years ago in east Tennessee.....I should know...I am of Cherokee blood
@@gailgosnell3864 Yeah, I guess you would know. When the first Europeans asked the local tribes who had built the mounds all over the Eastern U.S. they had no idea. But I'm sure you remember 8,000 years of history.
these Chimera bones you "found" are the product of abomination ( the defiling of creation" that man did do thousands of years ago Gen 6 :12 and FTR man is doing again Ecc 1:9 Moderna ? Modify the RNA hello? @Figinformer for detail
@@jonericus No reason to be an ass, the Cherokee were here way before any Europeans, and being that she is of Cherokee heritage I'm sure there are many generations and stories that have been passed down to her through family and tradition. Just like I'm sure you remember what the first Europeans asked the Cherokee when they first arrived, 100's of years ago..... the Cherokee have roots in this soil thousands of years before any Europeans made the trip across the pond.
S D Dean was a very interesting and endearing fellow. He has since passed away. He is responsible for finding one of the oldest prehistoric human fossil sites in the eastern United States at long island Kingsport Tennessee beside the South fork of the Holston River.
Thank you for the information. He seems like a very educated and kind gentleman.
RIP GOD BLESS
Do you happen to know where I could find information about those fossils today?
Excellent presentation so full of history and knowledge
This was great!!! THANKYOU for all your research I so enjoyed this!!!
My Lord you are a great smart 🤓 smart man ♂️ I gotta watch this video teaching me how to look at all the limestone rocks that I got,,,,, I will watch this video teaching me alot,,,,,
I am a professional archaeologist based near Toronto Canada but have worked from Texas to Newfoundlabd to B.C. To the Rockies. I just wanted to say that I am really impressed with your excavation technique at the Rock shelter. Unfortunate that it was looted but excellent perserverene. Well done.
czcams.com/video/hfu90V5vbMM/video.html
Yes i was as well. The soil type helped too but really had a beauty to it.
I love BC. Ive had nothing but good times in Canada
Do you give lectures in various countries ?
This is Incredible work that you are doing.!!! Our whole history needs to be rewritten!!!
Just because a piece of a certain pottery style has not 'been found' outside a timeline does not mean there was none. If something is found older than any other found does not mean it was the first. Most things do not fossilize or is found.
Excellent in-depth lecture on the prehistory of East Tennessee.
I found a sea turtle shell while mapping a cave in East Tennessee along with mastadon tusk, and your jaw, I still have the pictures
I meant tapir jaw
That’s awesome! Can you post the images somewhere public for us to view?
My maternal grandfather was born in Blountville, Sullivan County in 1880.
Thank you. I enjoyed this very much.
I have viewed Mr Dean’s work on other channels. Good man. Sad that he passed but his educational efforts and passion live on.
I found a big broke spear tip north of fort Campbell. Best and only find I got
These Fossil finds are Outstanding and lend understanding of migrations around the climate changes following the "Big Freeze"!
These are what should be Headline News Subjects - not the debilitating Prejudices they Foster.

Yeah but if they did that then they would have to admit that the Bible is correct......
I wished i would have known about this video years ago this is very interesting...i love my Tennessee home im proud of it and i know this hadnt got a thing to do with archeology or paleontology... but uhh...Go Big Orange!!
thankyou loving people for the information wow
There is a dinosaurs fossil in Tuckaleeche Caverns in Townsend TN. Blount County
First fer Most: RIP Mr. Dean.
I found Stones with Owls Elephants Deer Buffalo Duck Birds Thunderbirds Etc etc itched into Stones. I Sure wish you could have seen them.
Can i see them. Please
@@Coincidence_Theorist I don't know how to send pics on here
THANK YOU ** I LOVE THIS INFO
When he says it's very unusual to find d different Eras tools in the same location ,I'd have to say it's actually common since I've located several places where there have been camps villages or settlements, river crossings with all these artifacts, plenty of clovis and later
Im from mcminn county TN grew up at the foot of Star Mt ive never actually seen fossils i dont doubt there are some but me and a friend of mine i grew up with found cannon balls stuck in the banks of cane creek..im assumin it was from the actual civil war time or the battle of Athens...i know it was the battle of Athens but ya know its right next door to Etowah TN
God bless
Being a stalmation to I bet your excavations where I found a river rocks that were very special every single one could have been placed on a corner in the hill
Didn't realize history had made it to Tennessee yet!
Look up Norris Lake. They've found all kinds of Egyptian artifacts.
@@ItsMeScareCro 😂😆 obviously, that explains Memphis
I lived in Sullivan county in 11975
I just ran across this. I love this presentation.
Never send anything to the Smithfonian, you may never here from it again. They have lost more history than you want to know about. Accidentally I'm sure😉
I don’t know if this is of interest or not, some of you may already be aware. But something dawned on me ... starting in North America you can go from the 5 toed Mastedon to the 5 toed Woolley Mammoth to Africa’s 4 toes elephant to the 3 toes elephant in India. It’s a straight line from the oldest to the newest ... like Africa was part of Central America ... no elephants in South America ... Woolley mammoths found though ... it was cold there at one time? 40 million years ago Africa started drifting from it. Fascinating!
czcams.com/video/hfu90V5vbMM/video.html
And toes started drifting as well. 🙄 or not. Mastodon still live in inner earth
Africa might of been part of Central America, at one time??
There was a Pygmy Mastodon found in Channel Islands outside of Santa Barbara. It had fallen in a sinkhole. Trapped there until it died of starvation.
Children were finding Megalodon teeth in the river outside of Templeton.
Obsidian knives were found in the river toward the Pacific in the same area.
I mentioned these things to my Anthropology teacher. He said "People don't like having digs on their property. Plus it's Too expensive."He wasn't willing to follow up.
I happened across a megalodon tooth and do believe it to be museum quality. It measures 5 3/4 top to bottom and 4 1/2 side to side. Anyone interested please contact me
How?
@@teddylong2167 You can buy them on eBay for $100.
@@rtoguidver3651 yeah they have really cool look to them
The "Mounds" that are referred to as burials... are HOUSES that were buried by a LARGE FLOOD that suddenly struck the area. That's why they were SITTING UP. THIS has been covered up, pardon the pun.
BTW - Carbon Dating is a sham. The reading will give you however many dates you want. When it gets one that fits the narrative. They go with that one. That how Carbon Dating works.
Yup mudflood
It’s the Phoenix phenomenon that occurs every 138 years somewhere in the world.
sure are a lot of fools commenting
I know of a cave close to my house with cave art
henry lets go
You could visit Track Rock in North Carolina too. It has art on the rocks done by the Cherokee and Cree.
Are u in Tennessee??
Where you able to take pictures?
@@Outrjs no the last time we went I was in high-school 20 years ago hahaha
It is my summation,...through my own interaction in the Cold Springs area near Townsend TN on top of a ridge.,......that the Dire Wolf IS NOT extinct. Or a hybrid this wolf at the least. Ive seen a few wolves native to TN.. THEY ARE HERE. But,....what I witnessed,....was a wolf that stood approximately 4 and a half to 5ft tall at the shoulder. Its head was absolutely enormous. Probably the size of a full grown tiger. It was black with streaks of silvery grey streaks. It probably weighed anywhere from 300 to 400lbs. After watching this monster running through a fire cut line of timbers,....I realized it was after a small fawn. Which it caught easily and carried off looking like a rat in its giant jaws. There is footage on youtube of an identical specimen of the wolf I saw. I believe the title is "a werewolf attacked my dog". The largest normal grey wolf or any current wolf of today is barely half the size of what I saw. I wrote down every detail of what I saw as to not forget a single detail. I then approached a TN. game warden my family has known for years. I told him what I saw. Before I could finish laying it out,.....he stopped me and said,...."that's enough son. You saw a big black wolf. That's all." To which I responded,....."Um,..No! I saw an absolutely enormous wolf." He laughed at me. Patted me on the shoulder an walked off. I was so steamed. I've been currently trying to acquire a photo of this creature by hiking the area I saw it in every free moment I have. I've seen it one other time at an extreme distance I could not photo. I do however have a picture of a clear track that makes my hand look comically small. I WILL PHOTOGRAPH OR ATTAIN VIDEO OF THIS CREATURE. I've had a close call with a black bear as I left a pig's rib cage I purchased from a local butcher trying to lure it into the area I saw it in. The bear was offended by my presence and let my know rather quickly. Almost had to shoot the ole girl. Either way. One day,...it will get it done. It's an incredible creature.
@@crazycrystalsconspiracies Couple uick questions. Did you see any grey on its back,....and what,...to your best estimation,....do you think it weighed??? And finally,....what part of TN. was this wolf seen. Thanks for sharing Crystal.
@@crazycrystalsconspiracies So it was in a fairly rural and wooded area?? That's a good sign. You saw it had a line of hair like a razorback tuft of hair. Another great sign. Just based on what you've told me here Crystal,.....he or she was a juvenile. 300lbs? Doesn't have his grey mane yet? Now that's just my opinion Crystal because obviously,.....I wasn't there. Doesn't really mean anything to date as we don't have enough concrete data about them yet. But,....I think you saw a juvenile. The sex of it??? Well. Like the females for instance. There is ZERO data about the differences in a female dire and a male dire from the fossil records. It's like they have never found one. Which is strange I think.
The male I've been watching and attempting to track is so elusive its nearly impossible to get alot of "in the field" data and info. He is a monster though. He would dwarf the one you saw. Just a giant. I couldn't imagine being within a few feet one him. You'd probably lose all you bodily functions. Anyway. Thanks again Crystal. If you see it again?? Try and take in as much detail as you can. Then head to my little YT channel and shoot me a comment. It would be greatly appreciated. And never, ever, shoot them Crystal,....unless you or a family member is in immediate danger. I know you wouldn't. Just sayin. Thanks again my dear. Have a blessed day.
@@crazycrystalsconspiracies So,...the next time you see it,....if at all. Wait til it's safe obviously,...and inspect the area you saw it in. Look for a track, hair sample, and even scat. Usually when you see one of these majestic monsters,....they've been watching you far longer than you've been seeing them. You know,.....I've never felt actual fear when I've encountered him,....but he did manage to sneak around me one day undetected and really spooked me. He was around 100 yards away,...but still. Something that enormous moving that stealthy around you and flanking you?? Unnerving to say the least.
So I have 2 hair samples and 4 pictures of tracks. The paws on this old boy doubles the size of my hands. Just massive. He is literally just a tad smaller than a full grown horse or donkey. I bet he could take a fully mature black bear like it was a rabbit. Now Ive yet to find any scat,.....however it's not out of the realm of possibility that they cover it or designate its placement for territorial reasons. I don't know. I know wolves don't typically cover their scat,....but this thing is no regular wolf. It's in that family,....but I think he is from a bloodline of the FIRST WOLVES. The grandfather of them all. If this thing we are are seeing ISNT a dire wolf Crystal???? Then what the hell is it???? I'd love to know.
Do you think that their’s a possibility they made their own flint?
Made their own? They typically went down into the 1000’s of caves in Tennessee. Then they would do a rough cut per-say of the flint balls or whatever theyre called. This was to make it so they could get more useful flint out. Otherwise it would weigh a ton. They’d be deep jn caves using torches soooo yeah.
I just see swirls in some of the flint to where it has me thinking that they may have made some of the flint as a glazier would make glass. Flint that has 50 layers where it’s white then gray all the way down.
I know what I'm buried I don't want to become a site and I'm buried leave him alone
Then you better notify and threaten Ancestory..c o m. They will invade any family CEMETERY and destroy it, any where..even in the Deep forest. And they will even set up a live internet feed, on a 300 year old grave markers..to watch the CEMETERY, of who comes and goes... in a FAMILY burial ground, that is located on a private family property.
Check out the Archaix CZcams channel for deep dives dealing on the subject matter discussed in this presentation!
Ive found some stuff in colonial heiegts that needs to be seen
Could you post a link to photo/video of your finds?
So the native Americans ran the mastadon off..sonmastadons were the original native Americans?
Imagine the work a 9' beaver could do, damn!
58:00
I found a fossilized ulna from a duck bill dinosaur in my yard after a heavy rain. I had no idea that 'none' were found here. Who do I contact to give this to someone appropriate?
Smithsonian. Kidding. DO NOT. Never ever ever even think of it.
By the way they wont really care about it because they cant prove the origin. Aka you dont qualify as a credible source. Just enjoy it and pass it on.
How large is it. Do you have a video? Thanks :)
A good place to take your bone is to UCSB. Sometimes when you submit things you'll never see them again. But that seems to be an important finding. They may be able to research it and find more if it's appropriate in your area you may have a college there ??
You lost me at a coupla million years…
I mean really…

If i could talk to dean that would have been awesome lol at 9:56 he's talking about a beaver and I know he's talking about a beaver but what he says is the size of a black bear I completely forget what it was i had to rewind it a few times haha so i knew the ground sloths were hug dang! So if I could ask my dude, well i have a few things I'm not sure if he was a forensic anthropologist but what did you think of the fossil and and now I'm assuming a predator or animals didn't go there to hunt or to die but a human left those so what do you think about him deciding to store the bones in that cave I think it's cool to think about like that first fossil getting there dying there, and then millions of years later this man finds it and he's like all these bones are made out of rock ??? Oh well I don't know how they got that way but this looks like a good place to leave the bones of the animal I eat says the prehistoric man lol I hope you guys like long run on and on and on sentences punctuation complicates my artistic freedom lol jk. To dean, his family! May yours and mine and eveybody bones arise in the future log after being fossilized! all right peace dean!
You can compare the arrow/ spear heads to modern day bullets. There used in the same way....

Ill pray for this guy. He has know idea folks. If you believe Smithsonian, D.C., Evolution???, You totally missed your Creator. I really hope you read your Bible, but, if you're not willing to investigate that, I can only leave by saying,... Have a Great Day Monkeys. May Yah open your eyes.
Ok it wasn’t until he said bow & aira that I figured out he wasn’t saying airheads but arrowheads lol
Yep we southern.

there is no such thing as prehistory - there is only history
Now that tva has been disbanded I wonder if they have chucked the artifacts because e they have no I tension of preserve ingredients the sites, I fact the army core of engineers seem to have consistently covered many if not most archeological morphological sites across the country . I've seen artifa ts underwater from alabama to Oregon under army core projects. And not very many are actual registered (protected) sites. The heritage foundation whom if I'm not mistaken funds the protection of confederate sites and that's Bout it. We have a historic marker here and there but no registration and that's what makes it illegal to dig,dive or surface hunt. Either way it also gives them ownership of anything found so they can take it away from archeological records.
So basicly if it's white people historic sites they preserve it but if you find a village while developing a neighborhood or golf course nobody cares. And the chaIn of command to get recognition is to go through local poli e apparently wich you could imagine wouldn't work even with a professor from a local college requesting protection.
tell them the truth , y,all is frenchi,s , y,all !
THIS JUST GOT ME TO THINKING...WHERE ARE THE BIGFOOTS TOOL EVIDENCE....I NEVER HEARD ANYONE TALK ABOUT BIGFOOT USING ANY HAND TOOLS FOR HUNTING OR EATING ECT....WITH ALL THE STUDYING OF HUMANS THEY MUST USE.SOME KIND OF HAND TOOLS FOR SOMETHING, WOULDNT YOU THINK?
Bigfoot are so strong they don't need tools. That's what makes them different than us they have other qualities which are unknown to our type of human. Mind speak for one and ability to make people well when they're ill. To see great distances and to see at night. To know what's happening at Great distance ... It could be "Hearing what people are Thinking" in order to prevent disasters.

While this is all interesting I can't believe we give our tax dollars to finance digging for bones of animals that once existed,we should be spending money on things that actually matters and improves our country and the lives of our citizens.
it is important for humans to know their past so that they have a better understanding of present and future. More tax payers money is pocketed by political families than ever spent on historical findings.
It matters to some of us. But yeah we need to spend more money on helping people.
@@fullmetaljackalope8408 I understand that it matters to a lot of people,I guess my point is that our resources are limited and I want them to be prioritized to the things that really matter that makes our lives better and improves our standard of living,tax payer dollars going to dig up extinct animals,I think that the funds for this should come from private enterprises,now I am aware that a whole lotta people will tell me to go piss up a rope,but I am just saying this is my opinion and as a free American who has fought for and definitely defended freedom I have that right,and you as a man/American on the other hand certainly have a right to your views as well and I absolutely respect that.
@@defendfreedom777 yeah what you say makes complete sense. There’s never going to be enough money for everything and lots of stuff is more important like saving peoples lives and such. Archeology is really interesting to me but I’d probably be happier too if my tax dollars went to actually helping actual people that are alive now.
@@fullmetaljackalope8408 yes my friend and I will give you an example of what I am talking about,I have got elderly people in my community that are having to use food banks because their social security benefits don't allow them to buy enough food at the hiway robbery prices that all of us are having to pay,but yet a mosque not to far from here gets a government grant of 93,000 dollars to upgrade for worship+(yes this bullshit really happens) Ukraine gets billions upon billions of u.s dollars but yet everyday middle class Americans are having to between 4to7 dollars a gallon of gas/diesel depending on where you live,so is foreign aid and the damn mosque the priority or is American citizens and our elderly the priority? I would love it if
Seriously do dig up ancient cemetery's too.

But at least you know grammar. Js
@@gregorycross2200 What does it matter? It's history man! Some people are interested in what the Earth was like before humans, or even what it was like during the first humans. It's called knowledge, learning about the changes that have taken place over millions of years, learning from it. Learning about past civilizations, their progress and their decline, what led to both, jumps in evolution etc..... the bigger question is why doesn't it matter? The contribution is understanding what came before us, how we came about and maybe getting a glimpse of where we might be heading, and what we contribute along the way. That may not be important to some, but to others it's fascinating work and means a great deal.
@@jademayer4995 the problem is the ones who control the release of the information on what is found. I can assure you that if it goes against the narrative it will be stored at the Smithsonian and never heard of publicly.
