What material was used to build Lincoln Memorial?

The Lincoln Memorial is constructed of five kinds of
stone.  One of the kinds of stone is Indiana limestone.  Another type of stone is
something called Yule Marble.  This second kind of stone comes from quarries in
Colorado.  A third type of stone used is pink Tennesse marble.  A fourth kind of stone
used (for the statue of Lincoln) is marble from Georgia.  Finally, there is granite that
comes from the state of Massachusetts.

The Lincoln Memorial
was authorized by Congress soon after Lincoln's death (authorized in 1867).  However, it
was not actually started in 1914.  It took the builders 8 years to complete it and the
memorial was dedicated in 1922.
