FEWEES] USE OF PIPE BY ANTELOPE PRIESTS 5 
smoke over the two ti-po-nis and on the sand picture. Ha-ha-we, mean- 
while, lit a second pipe, and passed it to Ko-pe-li, the Snake chief, who 
enjoyed it in silence, indiscriminately puffing smoke on the altar, to the 
cardinal points, and in other directions. Ko-pe-li later gave his pipe to 
Ka-kap-ti, who sat at his right, and Wi-ki passed his to Na-syun-/we-ve, 
who, after smoking, handed the pipe to Kwa-a, who in turn passed it 
to Ka-tei, by whom it was given to Ha-ha-we. K4-tci, the last priest 
to receive it before it was returned to the pipe-lighter, smoked for a 
long time, and repeatedly puffed clouds of smoke upon the sand pic- 
ture. Meanwhile Kaé-kap ti had handed his pipe to Ha ha-we, both 
exchanging terms of relationship and carefully observing the accom- 
panying ceremonial etiquette. Ha-ha we, as was his unvarying cus- 
tom, carefully cleaned the two pipes, and laid them on the floor by the 
side of the fireplace.” 
The form of pipe used in the above ceremony is typical of ancient 
Pueblo pipes, several of which were found at Sikyatki. One of these, 
much smaller than the 6-mow-uh pipe, was made of lava, and bore 
evidence of use before burial. It is evident, however, that these 
straight pipes were not always smoked as above described. The most 
interesting pipes found at Sikyatki were more elongated than that 
above mentioned and were made of clay. Their forms are shown in 
plate CLXx111, b,c, d, f. One of these ()) is very smooth, almost glazed, 
and enlarged into two lateral wings near the mouth end, which is per- 
forated with a small hole. The cavity at the opposite end is large 
enough to hold sufficient for a good smoke, and shows evidence of 
former use. The whole median region of the exterior is formed by a 
collar incised with lines, as if formerly wrapped with fiber. In some of 
the modern ceremonials, as that of the Bear-Puma dramatization in the 
Snake dance, a reed cigarette is used, ancient forms of which have been 
found in sacrificial caves, and there seems no doubt that this pipe is 
simply a clay form of those reeds. The markings on the collar would 
by this interpretation indicate the former existence of a small fabric 
wrapped about it. The two pipes shown in plate CLXXxIU, b, f, are 
tubular in shape,! highly polished, and on one of them (/) we see 
scratches representing the same feature as the collar of b, and probably 
made with the same intent. 
The fragment of a pipe shown in plate CLXXIII, d, is interesting in 
the same connection. The end of this pipe is broken, but the stem is 
intact, and on two sides of the bowl there are elevations covered with 
crosshatching. The pipe is of clay and has a rough external surface. 
It is improbable that these pipes were always smoked as the wwu-k0- 
tco-no of the Snake ceremony, but the smaller end was placed to the 
mouth, and smoke taken into the mouth and exhaled. It is customary 
in ceremonials now practiced, to wind a wisp of yucca about the stem 
of a short pipe, that it may not become too hot to hold in the hand. 
1 This form of pipe occurs over the whole pueblo area.
