I found more of my Alibates flint (agatized dolomite) samples. Alibates colors are so varied, but I prefer the red & lavender. #Archaeology #Flintknapping

More recovered lithic material from the old shed. Here is a large flake of red & lavender Alibates agatized dolomite flint from the same stone that I used to make this Dalton point. #Archaeology #Flintknapping
Hard hammer stone percussion and antler work, on a piece of flintridge material. #experimentalarcheology #flintknapping #archaic
Awaiting inspiration: L>R) Catahoula quartzitic sandstone (west-central Louisiana), multi-colored novaculite (Ouachita Mountains, Arkansas), & Tallahatta "quartzite" silicified sandstone (east-central Mississippi). #Archaeology #rocks #flintknapping

Thermal alteration pebble 4: Citronelle Formation (Left) brown gravel chert biface with white cortex & near-cortex & (Right) post-heat treating red & pinkish-gray color change. No apparent luster change. #archaeology #Flintknapping
It’s fun to think someone, thousands of years ago was making stone tools in the same spot I’ve chosen. #flintknapping #debitage #lithics

Result of thermal alteration. Yellow & dusty mauve chert biface turned shades of red & mauve during heat-treating. No real luster change. #archaeology #Flintknapping
Unfinished mahogany & black obsidian lanceolate biface. One lateral edge is mahogany reddish-brown & black, while the rest of the rock is black. #Archaeology #Flintknapping
Big pile of dark blue-gray novaculite flakes that can be used for tools, biface production, etc. #archaeology #flintknapping
One lithic heat-treating result. Citronelle gravel brown (~5Y6/6) chert with white (~2.5Y_/1) cortex (upper right) changed to red (10R4/4 to 10R3/2) with pale red (2.5R7/2) cortex. The surface pot-lidded, with 2 of the pot-lid flakes shown below. #archaeology #Flintknapping
I use it as a "leveling" material to transition from #flintknapping chert, novaculite & chalcedony to working obsidian. Slag glass used to be cheap compared to the price of good obsidian. Best to destroy slag glass to settle down & get back into the rhythm of working obsidian.
The box contains different colors of slag glass & obsidian. #flintknapping #archaeology
Well, not all of the boxes here have "rocks". This one has sharp things...or potentially sharp things. #archaeology #flintknapping
