I found this piece a few years ago on the Cumberland Plateau here in Tennessee close to the Kentucky line. I believe it to be the only piece I have made of this material. I have wondered what material it is. Anyone know? You Kentucky guys might have seen some of it.

My guess would be Ft. Payne also, F.P comes in several different variations in central kentucky, I use to drive to Cumberland Lake to hunt points and pick up knappable stone, i would load down the trunk with F. P . You wouldnt believe all the range of tans, grays, blacks and white you find this stuff... I would also find a mottled quartzite that was similar to F. P in color but was definatley a quartzite material. F.P and Knox chert are undoubtedly the most abundant lithics in south central kentucky.Josh (Ky/Tn collector)
