Alibates Flint Quarries National Monument is a U.S. national monument in the state of Texas. For thousands of years, people came to the red bluffs above the Canadian River for flint, vital to their existence. Demand for the high-quality, rainbow-hued flint is reflected in the distribution of Alibates flint through the Great Plains and beyond. Native Americans of the Ice Age Clovis culture used Alibates flint for spear points to hunt the Columbian mammoth before the Great Lakes were formed. The flint usually lies just below the surface at ridge level in a layer up to 6 ft thick. The quarry pits were not very large, between 5 and 25 ft wide and 4 to 7 ft deep. Many of these quarries were exploited by the Antelope Creek people of the Panhandle culture between 1200 and 1450 AD. The stone-slabb

- Het Alibates Flint Quarries National Monument is een National Monument in Texas, Verenigde Staten. Duizenden jaren lang kwamen mensen uit Noord-Amerika naar de rode kliffen boven de voor vuursteen. Deze stenen waren van vitaal belang voor hun bestaan. De vraag naar vuurstenen van hoge kwaliteit blijkt uit het wijdverspreide voorkomen van de veelgekleurde Alibates-vuursteen doorheen de Great Plains en verder.
