I'm like Clammer, I never got the nack for recognizing arrowheads very well. My grandfather had a big collection he got on Cape, a lot of it during a reconstruction at Bass River Golf Course, which had been the site of an Indian village at some point. Finding stuff a little more current I can do. A stretch of Bass River I visit each year gives up clay pipe parts, parts or whole old bottles. I'm always on the lookout for sea glass.
My father is more for the history scavenger hunts. Every time I'm visiting the Cape he's got intel on anything from a lone couple of headstones from Smallpox victims out in the woods somewhere, or he'll decide he wants to find the gravestone of John Dos Passos first wife that died in a car accident on the Cape. And he's never at a loss for places we might find glass insulators (usually guarded by the most healthy of poison ivy bushes).
