For over 300 years, the red stone ceremonial pipe has been prized above all others by the American Indian. Reverence for the place from which it came was common to all Indians, and many legends relate the supernatural origin of these quarries and of the first pipe - a gift from the gods. The bowl was the altar, and tobacco the sacred offering. The smoke carried messages to the gods. Discussions were solemnized, treaties arranged, lands acquired, wars begun and terminated over a pipe. $130 USD Each |
