Tobacco, Pipes, and Race in Colonial Virginia investigates the
economic and social power that surrounded the production and use of
tobacco pipes in colonial Virginia and the difficulty of
correlating objects with cultural identities. A common artifact in
colonial period sites, previous publications on this subject have
focused on the decorations on the pipes or which ethnic group
produced and used the pipes, "European," "African," or "Indian."
This book weaves together new interpretations, analytical
techniques, classification schemes, historical background, and
archaeological methods and theory. Special attention is paid to the
subfield of African diaspora research to display the complexities
of understanding this class of material culture. This fascinating
study is accessible to the undergraduate reader, as well as to
graduate students and scholars.
