Flint Ridge Nature Preserve in Licking County Ohio

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.

Flint Ridge contains quarry pits where all of the ancient people of Ohio came to get flint for both tools and weapons.^[4]Some archaeologists believe that the Hopewell culture traded the brightly colored flint from this area for materials from other areas of North America
