Flint Ridge State Memorial
Flint Ridge State Memorial is a Native American flint quarry located in Hopewell Township, Licking County, Ohio, about three miles north of Brownsville at the intersection of Brownsville Road and Flint Ridge Road. Old quarry pits are visible, and a museum is on the site.
Flint is a variety of quartz and the flint on the ridge is the Vanport Limestone Member of the Allegheny Formation of Pennsylvanian age.〔Rice, C.L., Kosanke, R.M., and Henry, T.W., 1994, Revision of nomenclature and correlations of some Middle Pennsylvanian units in the northwestern part of the Appalachian basin, Kentucky, Ohio, and West Virginia, IN Rice, C.L., ed., Elements of Pennsylvanian stratigraphy, central Appalachian basin: Geological Society of America Special Paper, 294, p. 7-26.〕〔DeLong, R.

Flint Ridge contains quarry pits where all of the ancient people of Ohio came to get flint for both tools and weapons.〔(Ohio Historical Society: Flint Ridge )〕 Some archaeologists believe that the Hopewell culture traded the brightly colored flint from this area for materials from other areas of North America.〔(Touring Ohio: Flint Ridge State Memorial )〕
