I have been fascinated with the past all my life. Although time travel is not possible (at least, as far as I know), we can still experience it through what I call "relics of the fourth dimension." Namely, as the old saying goes, "time marches on." We can't travel in the fourth dimension, except going forward in the present, but we can follow the trail of the fourth dimension. Along the way, people lose or discard items from their being. These relics are unintentional time capsules that give us as glimpse into their lives. Here on The Time Searchers blog, I will show some relics of the past that I have run across in our present. Sometimes when I am out on a relic hunt with the Colonial Relic Hunter, we know that we are not alone. There is more than just relics at these historical sites. Indeed, it could be said that there is a portal to the past, perhaps to another dimension, where that which once was, still is. A place where the real consorts with the shadows; the present fuses with the past, on Time Searchers: Ghost Relics.

The Colonial Relic Hunter Contributes: Spiked Tomahawk

Here's a nice little contribution from our good friend, The Colonial Relic Hunter.  He sends in the following description:

"Here is another Spike Tomahawk from my collection that is from the late 1700s to very early 1800.  I have always loved the Spike Tomahawks and trade axes in general because of the usage and the history of the artifacts."





The Colonial Relic Hunter will be posting and sending us more Revolutionary War Era Canteens/Powder Kegs so keep checking back for those interesting items!
