This table will serve as a beginning, but it is incomplete. Many pipes
of the types mentioned by Mr. McGuire are found in other sections than
those named by him.

The names of some pipes may not be familiar to all of my readers. I
therefore repeat Mr. McGuire’s list of fifteen pipe-types, and state
opposite each, the numbers of figures illustrating that particular type.
The fifteen types of pipes described by Mr. McGuire are illustrated in
this chapter under the following figure numbers:—
1. Curved-base mound pipe. Fig. 452.
2. Heavy bird or animal pipe. Figs. 477 and 481.
3. Tubular pipe. Figs. 428 and 446.
4. Iroquoian clay pipe. Upper specimen, Fig. 465.
5. Iroquoian grotesque bird-pipe. Fig. 470.
6. Iroquoian rectangular pipe. Central specimen, Fig. 465.
7. Disc or jewsharp pipe. Fig. 447.
8. Biconical pipe. Right specimen, Fig. 489.
9. Micmacs, keel-base pipes. One in Fig. 453; left specimen in Fig.
464.
10. Siouan and catlinite type. Fig. 437.
11. Southern mound type. Specimen K in Fig. 463.
12. Pueblo pipes. (No figures presented, but they resemble those in
Figs. 428, 446.)
13. Rectangular pipes, birds and animals on bowls. Fig. 496, specimen
in the lower left-hand corner.
14. Monitor pipe. Figs. 451, 449.
15. Bowl and vase-shaped pipes. Fig. 458, central specimen, Fig. 464.
Certain areas are characterized by particular forms of pipes, and in
regions where the population was more dense, several types of pipes are
usually found, thus indicating that they were taken from one region to
another.
