Wilson, Eddie W.

Abstract:

Wilson considers North Carolina's rich Native American heritage by examining examples of pipes. Effigy pipes are highly decorative artifacts typically representing animals. Notable pipes found in North Carolina are collected in the United States Museum collection. Several examples from Cherokee tribes demonstrate the skill and craftsmanship to make these sometimes elaborate pipes.
