I find that Bighorn flint quite extensively, of course it is literally in my back yard. Not too far to go.


Here is a red one.

Guilford found many moons ago. Pretty decent workmanship for quartzite with the tiny serrations and all.

Had to throw in this "Old Sachem Bitters and Wigwam Tonic". With a name like that, I couldn't resist.

Nothing like some of the deep, pure reds y'all have, but these are about as red as I can manage.

Not too much red around mere. But it occurs in the East Texas Piney Woods as cobbles in the sand.

The first artifact I found, a pestle. I didn’t know a thing about artifacts at the time and just thought it was a cool shaped rock. A friend who knew much about them informed me years later what is was. His information is what what got me started in this hobby. Its closer to purple, being a real deep red.
