Hey guys,
So I'm trying to get familiar with as many New England materials as I can, and I have some here that I've been wondering about. I'm hoping I can get some help here. I'd also like to know where the material sources are located if it's not in the name.
Where I have pieces paired I am assuming they are the same material, please correct me where I am wrong.
So here's the first one. I find this at some of my sites but I've never found a point or a tool made out of it. I love it, and if anyone has points made out of it please post them here.
This next one I believe I have found at all of my sites, and I also have one point made out of it. Always thought it looked like an unlikely material.
This one I think is a really pretty material but I've only ever found this one flake at a site I can no longer hunt. It has nice shades of pink, violet, purple... I hope someone knows what this is, I'm really curious.
Next one is another that I have only ever found one flake of. Not one tool, not one other flake. It's tough to tell from the pictures but it's sort of pink or violet in color. I'd love to know what this is.
Never found a point made from this next one either, I'd like to see any examples made out of any of these.
This next one I think is a rhyolite, anyone recognize it?
And this one?
Here's the last one.
Thanks in advance guys.
