There are spaces between the mounds at M-ville where there is nothing to be found. It depends on many factors, but around there the rule of thumb is if the land drains well and does not flood you are likely to find something. The site of M-ville is surprisingly contained to the site itself given how big it is. Here is a hint, look for well elevated sandy soil near water. For instance, if you goto M-ville, go to the riverbank view and look across at how low the other side is. There is nothing to be found there cause it floods. Indians were smarter than us, they didnt live and certainly didnt build cities where it floods.

Near good clear creeks are always good for finding them. Like skinny said small flat knolls are always great close to creeks. Fresh cutover after a couple of rains is money.

Skinny, is there any historical maps that I could look up for where my land is that may show native activity or settlements?
No. That area is heavily documented compared to most other areas of the state. I used to work at the lab there around 24-25 years ago.

Like Skinny says, because he's the expert, well draining soil, i.e. sandy soil, that is not too far from a water source. If you look at a plowed field from a distance look for the high spots that are lighter in color. Another thing that I've found is that if the land has elevation gains the second tier from the water always has been a good place to start for me. I have no explantion why the second tier has been better for me than the first one, but it seemed to work that way with me. That is where a topo map would come in handy. Think like an Indian. Where can I live close to good, fresh water and not get flooded out of my home or live in mud when it rains? If you start looking and find a bunch of chips, don't be discouraged if you don't find any complete points right off. You are in the right place. A plowed field needs about 3" of rain on it for the points to really start showing. A back saver is a stick to flip every piece of rock you see. A collecting friend of mine made the best flipping stick. He took the head off of a golfing iron then he flattened a spoon and stuck the shaft of the spoon in the golf shaft and applied JB Weld. It was perfect. Right length and everything. Another thing is that is you go during or right after a misting rain the points seem to pop out better.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

All the places I used to find them are either overgrown or in a what is now a WMA One plac was on a high knoll overlooking a creek It was easy to find anything I think the most popular item we’d find was a leather punch/awl looking shafts Tons of grinding stones and bird points almost every other step we’d find those
When I need expert advice I tend to talk to myself The older I get the better I used to be

Every good place I have ever found was just as skinny described.... high and dry, sandy soil next to a good clean water source.

I used to be in a club in Dallas Co. There was a certain ridge on this property that a dirt road was on and ran right through the middle of the lease. One particular spot had a creek on each side of the ridge. Every time it would rain you could walk that road and find arrowheads.

A harrow doesn't damage the points as bad as running a disc.

I lived in Stewart for several years, 1980-85. The north half of Hale Co along the Warrior is absolutely covered with good spots. Moundville era all the way back to Paleo stuff, sometimes on same plot of land.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....
