        This hafted scraper is out of an opaque snow white lithic I believe is novaculite from Arkansas.

                      The banded obsidian from OR is without a doubt my favorite. So much so that I might try to purchase an artifact made from it as a nice Christmas gift to myself. Locally though I'd love to find a piece made out of Flint Ridge OH Moss Agate. Very cool looking material

                        My favorite is probably the blue portion of BGT (Blue-Gray-Tan) Fort Payne Chert. The artifacts made from it look like North Carolina Tarheels light blue, struck flakes are sharp as a razor blade, and it makes a glass-like, hollow, ringing sound. Early Archaic folks at some sites in Middle Tennessee appear to have been very fond of it.
