 being more sharply angled at its junction with 

 the stem as well as being slightly longer and 

 narrower in the bowl. Note that this pipe still 

 possesses the rouletted line below the mouth

quarter south of Clay Bank, and north of Aber- 

 deen Creek. They are included here as examples 

 of earlier 17th-century occupation in the Clay 

 Bank area, and because one of the stem fragments

 appears on five examples (no. 11) from the 

 Jenkins site cellar hole.) 



17. Tobacco-pipe bowl, white clay, flat broad heel, 

 the bowl somewhat bulbous in the mid section, 

 neat rouletted line below the mouth. Stem-hole 

 diameter 7 64 inch, about 1630-1670.

 doubtedly the same maker. This is important in 

 that it illustrates the wide difference in bowl 

 shapes produced, apparently contemporaneously, 

 by a single maker. Stem-hole diameter 7 / u inch, 

 about 1650-1690.
