crystallise and didn't have any mineral component. Obsidian has been known to be
a part of the Mayan culture because of its glass like formation, it had been used
predominantly to cut and are shaped like blades.
Obsidian is often compared to Granite because it has silica composition.

Sometimes Obsidians can have a variety of bands that can be red or grey
or even opaque colors and often can be combinations of all these.
The first discovery of blades were not useful not like the blades that were shaped
with a triangle cross section which were known as prismatic blade which are
stronger and which were popularly used by the Mayan as cutting tool.

.The Obsidian blades had been used for hunting, farming, cooking( for cutting
meat like rabbits or even rodents,etc.

them in medical operations because they make clean cuts therefore it makes for
the rapid healing of any scar tissues.
