Clay Pipe

Clay Pipe-52264
Content Description: Construction workers on the new Naval Sea Systems Command complex site on the west side of the Wasington DC Navy Yard discovered this pipe during excavations in 1999. Given the location of the find, it seems a yard wokrer lost the pipe near the timber storage pond. The use of tobacco was common in a region where tobacco farming dominated agriculture.
