There is only one pipe of the collared trumpet type (Plate XV, 
figure 44). . . 
Eight pipes are of the special trumpet type, all of them having flaring 
mouths like those of the simple type, but the lower part of the bowl is 
either bulbous or shouldered. Some of the bowls of this type are also more 
profusely decorated than those of the simple type. 
One of the simplest special trumpet pipes, decorated with a row of pits 
around the bulging part of the bowl, is seen in Plate XV, figure 46. Similar 
pipes have been found at Iroquoian sites in other parts of Ontario, one 
being from Innisfil township, Simcoe county (See Orr, 2:16); one from lot 
28, concession V, Vaughan township, York county ( See Orr, 1:60) ; one, 
but with the neck less constricted and decorated with encircling grooves and 
a group of short horizontal grooves like those on some of the simple trumpet 
pipes, from near Eglinton, York county; one from Cartwright township, 
Durham county; one from Yarmouth township, Elgin county (See Smith, 2, 
Plate LXVII, figure 7), and another from Bayham township, in the same 
county. One specimen (Cat. No. VIII-F-12269) differs from that shown 
in Plate XV, figure 46, in having a long neck above the bulging part of the 
bowl and in having this part decorated; small lip fragments of three other 
pipes bear the same kind of decoration and are probably parts of bowls of 
the same type. A fragment of what seems to have been a bowl of the same 
type (Cat. No. VIII-F-13123&) was shouldered instead of bulging and was 
probably of the same shape as one found in the site of Hochelaga (See 
Dawson, 2, Figure 6, and, 3, Figure 23) and another from a Huron site in 
Victoria county, Ontario. 
McGuire’s contention (page 493) that pipes of the trumpet type were 
copies of the flaring mouths of trumpets of early European explorers is 
scarcely tenable, because the trumpet pipes found here and at early 
Iroquoian sites elsewhere in Ontario were probably made long before the 
arrival of Europeans. Moreover, why should the Indians have to wait until 
the white man’s trumpet gave them the suggestion when some of our native 
flowers, such, for instance, as those of the cherished tobacco plant, would 
suggest the shape. 
The ovoid type of pipe bowl, of which there are seven more or less 
fragmentary specimens, including one in Mr. White’s collection (Plate XV, 
figures 37 and 43), has a sub-type with a cornice-like top that resembles 
some of the pottery vessels found here. 
None of the pipe bowls is spherical. 
The truncated, inverted cone type of pipe may be divided into five 
sub-types, in some instances depending on the kind of decoration, as 
follows: (1) simple cone; (2) cone with deep, encircling grooves; (3) cone 
with deep encircling grooves and pits; (4) cone with straight collars; and 
(5) cone with incurving collar; the latter susceptible of still further 
subdivision, depending on the kind of modelled decoration. . The angle 
between the bowl and the stem of all of the small, simple cone pipes is more 
obtuse than on the larger pipes. There are one hundred and two specimens 
of this type, including one presented to the museum in 1896, and three 
others in Mr. White’s collection from the site. 
Twenty bowl fragments are of the simple cone type. The shape of one 
of them is reminiscent of a truncated cone type of pipe found on Tionontati
