The pipe was excavated from a plantation site dating to the late 18th to mid-to-late 19th centuries. Two other pipe fragments were recovered with similar features. Limited amounts of research have been conducted on this artifact. We had been attributing it to the Moravian tradition but this pipe is so much more stylized than the classically influenced Moravian reed pipes that I feel uncomfortable in definitely saying this. The Virginia Department of Historic Resources has a similar stylized effigy pipe on display but the report contains no information on the production of the pipe. Has anyone seen anything similar or have any information on the production of these sort of pipes. Thanks!

TERM LIMITS because the longer they are in, the more arrogant,
self-aggrandizing, and corrupt they become.
Nothing says "American Dream" like crushing debt and burdensome regulation.
