Pipes

Only one pipe was found but it may be of considerable value for

interpretation of the relationship of the site to other areas. It was

picked up by Mr. Lawhorn when his plow turned over a burial. The pipe is

made of stone and has a non-functional stem projection commonly seen on

pipes from Spiro (Baerreis, 1957 p. 25). The bowl is quite large and at

right angles to the stem (Fig. 24;3). The bowl is slightly elliptical in

outline with both sides flattened on their lower portions. The bottom of

the bowl and the stem projection have also been flattened while the

functional portion of the stem is round in cross section. This is about

⅓ longer than the depth of the bowl. The projection is quite small.

There is a crudely incised groove around the stem.
