Perhaps the heaviest used and least glamerous stone employed by the ancient Egyptians is chert, which is also commonly referred to as flint. From Predynastic times onward it was used for tools (awls; adzes, knife and sickle blades; axe and pick heads; choppers; drill bits; and scrapers) and weapons (dagger blades, and spear and arrow points). Even when metals (copper, bronze and later iron) became commonplace for these applications, chert was still a popular low-cost alternative. For tools and weapons requiring the sharpest edges, imported obsidian was employed. A wide variety of stones, especially hard ornamental ones, were used for the heads of maces, a club-like weapon.
From Late Predynastic times into the Late Period, the quarrying and much of the carving of ornamental stones was done with hard, fracture-resistant stone tools known as pounders and mauls. These were primarily of dolerite, but siliceous sandstone, anorthosite gneiss and fine-grained granite were also occasionally used. These same rocks were also employed as grinding stones for smoothing rough, carved stone surfaces. The actual polishing of these surfaces was probably done with ordinary, quartz-rich sand of which Egypt abounds. For the softer sandstone and limestone, picks of chert (as well as metal tools) were employed.
