decorative designs are more fully described under “ Art.” A few of the 
stems are elaborately decorated {See Plate XVI, figures 24, 26, and 27) 
and in this respect are like one found in Victoria county, and another in 
Peterborough county, Ontario {See Boyle, 7, Figures 31 and 32). 
Four stems were painted red, but none of the bowls is coloured, and 
judging from the scarcity of coloration at Iroquoian sites elsewhere, 3 
earthenware pipes were seldom decorated with paint. 
There are five main types of earthenware pipe bowls, all of them being 
susceptible of division into sub-types, making about seventeen kinds. 
Several of these sub-types grade into other sub-types even of other main 
types. The four main types are: I, nearly tubular; II, cylindrical; III, 
trumpet; IV, ovoid; and V, conoid. Besides those that are assignable to 
these types there are fifty-nine fragments of bowls too small to identify 
as to type. 
Two of the pipes can be considered as nearly tubular, one being the 
fish pipe seen in Plate XVI, figure 5, and the other the pipe resembling a 
corn-cob in figure 22, in the same plate, both having the bowl cavity and 
the stem hole nearly on the same plane. Pipes of this type are rare at 
Iroquois sites generally, the only specimens nearly like these coming from 
an Onondaga site in Jefferson county (Skinner, 4, Plate XXXVII, figure a) 
and from presumed Cayuga sites in Cayuga county, New York (Beau- 
champ, 2, Figures 156, 179, and 207). 
The cylindrical type of earthenware pipe bowl, of which there are 
twenty-eight broken specimens, grades into the ovoid when its top contracts 
and its body becomes bulbous, and into the conoid when its bowl approaches 
a cone form. This type may be divided into four sub-types: (1) simple, 
(2) simple with collar, (3) simple with shield bearing a human face form, 
and (4) slightly flaring. 
There are eighteen bowls of the simple, cylindrical sub-type, one of 
which is in Mr. White’s collection {See Plate XV, figures 34, 35, and 38). 
One, which is undecorated, lacks part of the upper edge of the bowl; the 
stem has been broken off and the broken end ground to a roughly conoid 
shape (Cat. No. VIII-F-11090) . Part of the upper portion of the pipe 
bowl in Plate XV, figure 34, which is unusually low, is lacking, and the 
tip of the broken stem has been rubbed smooth. The pipe in figure 35, in 
the same plate, also lacks the upper part of the bowl and the tip of the 
stem. The one in Plate XVI, figure 6, shows a luting scar on the front, 
which suggests that a human face or some other life form had been broken 
off. A fragment of a massive bowl (Cat. No. VIII-F-11887) is at least 
Yo inch thick and is unusual in having several large mammillary elevations 
around the top of the bowl. This sub-type grades almost imperceptibly 
into the fourth sub-type with slight flare. 
Five pipes have bowls of the simple cylindrical with collar sub-type; 
two of them have overhanging collars (Cat. Nos. VIII-F-10264 and 
VIII-F-13293) and two others (Cat. Nos. VIII-F-10264 and VIII-F-13139) 
projecting angular tops, resembling the tops of some of the earthenware 
pots found here: 
iA broken bowl bearing a human face, from Price Corners, Medonte tp., Simcoe co., Ont., is stained or painted 
a bright red (See Boyle, 14: 57).
