Prim Media Primary media for this item. 462 DescriptionEN English Description White kaolin clay ball tobacco pipe, partial bowl and heel/spur. Decorated with star shapes in relief on both sides, with a vertical feather/leaf pattern down the length of the bowl on two sides. The artifact was found in church village; it is unknown who would have used the pipe, as the village was home to a mixed community of enslaved people and poor whites. It is unknown where the pipe originated, but the shape of the pipe resembles pipes found at archaeological sites in England and on other Anglophone Caribbean islands. The star relief pattern resembles patterns found in the Bahamas. The pipe was likely used pre-Emancipation in Barbados.
