Is it legal to go on private property and dig up artifacts like arrowheads without the owners permission

In most cases, it is illegal to go on private property and dig up artifacts like arrowheads without the owner's permission. This is because artifacts are considered the property of the landowner, and digging them up without permission is considered trespassing and theft. In some cases, it may also be considered a violation of state or federal laws protecting historic or archaeological sites.

However, there are some exceptions to this rule. For example, it may be legal to dig up artifacts on private property if:

You have the owner's permission.
The artifacts are not protected by state or federal laws.
You are conducting a professional archaeological excavation.

If you are unsure whether it is legal to dig up artifacts on a particular piece of property, it is always best to err on the side of caution and ask the landowner for permission first.
