Obsidian -- A Glass Buttes Adventure

Autor F. Scott Crawford
en Limba Engleză Paperback
OBSIDIAN -- A Glass Buttes Adventure Modern flint knappers and ancient cultures all make use of Obsidian as a natural resource. This volcanic glass was one of the finest stones for making knives, dart and arrow points, and other cutting tools ... used for thousands of generations by our ancestors. In the United States one of the lesser known sources of obsidian is Glass Buttes in eastern Oregon. For several years late in the twentieth century and early in the twenty first century, an annual Workshop for flint and obsidian knappers of all skills from all over North America was hosted on the high slopes of Glass Buttes. This book shows you an up close and personal look at the activities involved in quarrying obsidian and making stone age tools in the Space Age. Join us for a few days of breaking rock in the beautiful and primitive wilderness of the desert and mountain areas of eastern Oregon. You'll see why many knappers made the journey to Glass Buttes, and returned as often as they could. OBSIDIAN -- A Glass Buttes Adventure.
