    The Egyptians eventually discovered how to make Egyptian Blue as they tried to make substitutes for lapis lazuli.

    Quite rare purple "ochre? roqua? or rock?" from the Forest of Dean. ??
    Interesting video, btw.
    EDIT: Found it! ""Clearwell Caves are still worked intermittently to produce coloured ochres for use as natural pigments. These are washed and milled for sale in the mine's own shop. A range of ochre colours are available, from golden yellow to English Reds. Clearwell is also known as one of the few locations where the rare purple ochre may be found.""

      @@loredanalinden1958 Interesting! However, the last time I looked at a map, not only is Hastings not close to the Forest of Dean., but they have different geological substrata. Still, chemistry operates widely. In Death Valley in the USA, there are erosion-exposed faces of variegated rocks ("Artists Palette Painted Hills") and similar colored strata are found in China ("Rainbow Mountains").

    We do a fair amount of hiking and exploring in our area. Two days ago, we were driving our Jeep 4WD into an area where we had never been, and the neighborhood road led us further and further into the countryside until we got to a 4WD road which we took for a few miles and then got out and hiked down a rather flat dry wash. I began to see first a clump of pastel color here and then another color there, and finally quite a few clumps of significantly different colors. At least 10 different colors. We had stumbled on a concentration of natural pigment rocks. I was struck by the fact that they felt much lighter than any of the other pebbles and rocks in the stream bed, and also by the fact that they easily left a substantial colored chalk-like mark on harder stone. I retrieved quite a few of these pieces and will use them to produce some paints and pastel sticks soon. I have seen the occasional piece of stuff like this before at several other locations, but this new spot was a much heavier concentration.

    Love this!!!!! Been loving learning about low-toxic and/or zero-VOC paints like milk paint, clay paint, chalk paint, Benjamin Moore, etc., and cool businesses that sell that stuff. Plus learning other aspects of DIY, green, nature-based, and low-toxic living. Earth pigments can be mixed with various things and I saw a company that sells them I think sources from mainly or only Europe? But this takes it a step further to make one's one locally!! (I bet the head scarf and clothes in this video are naturally died too. Looks like it!) Now to learn more about natural dyes (liquid dye is different than powder pigment), natural ink, more on natural food prep, more on natural building (cob is my current favorite plus compost toilets), etc.!

I got sick and tired of people riding books and saying ancient paints that they knew nothing that was in it…… they don’t even do the research, man there’s a reason why there’s an Internet, books and a library!!!

      I don't mean to discouraged you from doing this, but as Civil engineer, who study environmental engineering, I want point a few things to be careful about.
      First, the moment you start alternate it to make it into paint, you are making a chemical. The process of grinding, mixing into water, letting the water evaporate, than grinding it again is a chemical process. No difference than a lab. Actually it can be more dangerous than a lab because you don't know the chemicals composition of the clay you are using. Remember naturally doesn't mean it is not dangerous. Lead, Mercury, Arsenic, Rust, and etc. can all be found mix into natural rocks. Especially Lead. It can be hidden in clay and rocks. I always suggest looking up your soil survey of your area before messing around with unknown substances.
      A good example of being careless is A lot of historical sculptures were painted red, where the main pigment was made by Cinnabar. Which release toxic mercury fumes over time.
