Collector Spotlight- Kris Rock

February 2025

I was Born and raised in the Silicon Valley in Ca, moved to Austin TX in 89, I have worked in the electronics manufacturing for most of my working life. Did not start collecting artifacts until 2010, found my first whole point and I was hooked. I searched the San Gabriel river valley around Liberty hill where I owned a pizza parlor. I bought my first camp in 2011, off the North San Gabriel river. 10 acres with a nice Bulverde Camp on it. I also traded pizzas to my customers who I delivered pizza to for dig time on their ranches along the creeks and springs in the area. I had some home less friends who would guard my dig spots from looters on my property, in exchange I gave them the run of the place and permission to dig, and then they would sell me their finds. I have found and or acquired over 700 complete finds from my local spots. Mostly San Gabriel river and Brushy and Sandy creek feeds. I am always looking for new areas in Central TX to find Artifacts legally. I have helped many property owners locate ancient camps on their own property. Currently looking for another camp on acreage. This is the most relaxing way to break your back for a reward that can be truly amazing! The feeling I get when I pick up a treasure that was last handled by it’s maker / owner right there where you found it…. they lost it, sometimes thousands of years ago…. that is what keeps me going back. Happy Hunting Y’all !
