Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Archaeology of Lytton, British Columbia
The pipes were made from steatite. Blocks of the raw material broken from the rock, and pieces of the same which had been cut and rubbed, were found on the surface. Finished pipes, highly polished, and ornamented with incised lines, have been found in situ in the old graves. The bowl of this style of pipe is of the shape of a wine glass, and the stem is simply an extension of the bowl, the axes of both being in a straight line.
Ark - The art of these people is illustrated by paintings, engravings, and carvings, and also by the ornaments used for personal adornment. A small bowlder was f6und on which there was a circle painted in red. Many pieces of bone, antler, etc., are also stained with red ochre, which may or may not have been intentionally applied.
