Obsidian is an igneous rock formed by the rapid cooling and hardening of volcanic lava. The volcanic glass stone was used in trading by Mayan merchants, dating as far back as 100 years BC. In ancient Mexican culture this stone was called Itzli, literally, the god of stone, as it was used to make weapons for war as well as cutting tools for everyday use.
