Interesting Material

[ohio]

Finally got out and walked for a little bit on Monday. Nothing exceptional but, it did me a lot of good. The material on this birdpoint is interesting. I have found very similar material on a couple of sites in Southwestern Indiana. I have shown both sides of the smaller point in an attempt to show the banding in the material. These were found on the Ohio River in Northern Kentucky.

Hi! Some of it looks like agate. Agate is the state gemstone of Kentucky. The first point is real nice! That mustard color is quite common in KY agate.

Looks like material might be four mile creek chert?

Thanks to everyone for the comments. MeinWV, I do not believe it is agate. I am familiar with Kentucky agate. It is really pretty stuff. Pickaway, i do not think it is Four Mile. I have done a little bit of hunting on Four Mile creek in Preble co.. I found maybe a dozen or so points made of the material and it does not really resemble it. That is not to say that it is not a related material. Who knows. Thanks to all for the responses.
