This pipe was not simply smoked for pleasure but probably had a religious function. A shaman may have smoked it to evoke the otter as a representative of his clan, or as a spirit guide who would then accompany the shaman on a spiritual journey.
Tobacco has been smoked in North America for at least 2300 years and pipe smoking still remains an integral part of modern Native American culture. Tobacco was first brought to Europe in the early 1500s, where it quickly spread across Europe, Africa and Asia.
This pipe, as a material manifestation of past practice conjures the ephemeral smoke that bound the smoker to his or her clan lineage spirits and, when the smoking was communal, bound people to one another, just as I feel bound to this pipe, through the intimacy of the form and the imaginings of smoke it invokes.
When people were smoking what was called the “peace pipe” at a treaty negotiation – that is even more meaningful than to sign a document. It’s a way of sealing a deal not just legally but by giving a vow and confirming that to the wider universe. It’s really important to understand this idea of connection and relationship, it’s not just an individual act it’s a very collective act and a way of confirming and encoding and validating their prayers as being very serious.

With the help of government-issued pamphlets, an elderly British couple build a shelter and prepare for an imminent nuclear attack. A classic little cartoon of hugely disturbing proportions. English 1986. Soundtrack includes songs by David Bowie, Genesis, and Pink Floyd's Roger Waters.
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
WARNING: This material is not suitable for younger audiences.
An artistic, educational montage of the official UK government advice.
Ensure to turn up your sound so that the music soundtrack is audible.
Produced in the late 1970s, "Protect and Survive" was the epithet of a pamphlet and twenty short Public Information Films (PIFs), published by the Central Office for Information of the British Government, providing advice to civilians of what to do in the event of a nuclear conflict.
The pamphlet was briefly made available then very rapidly withdrawn from sale, in light of ensuing public reaction ("your exercise in futility is to not run, go home, hide under (your bed) and please curl up and die quietly.").
Quote of this and past Generations - Something Wrong -
"You know," said Arthur thoughtfully, "all this explains a lot of things. ... Jr.: Do you ever get the feeling that there's something going on that we don't know about? ... The environment, the government, the schools you name it.
And that's not all folks- except - before you go - lol - check out the back ground music in this episode startling to say the least -Survival Under Atomic Attack 1950
This video answers the question: "How often should I breastfeed my baby?" For more ongoing information slow to:
1950 - upto - 2010
Do all scientists agree global warming is happening? Yesss!
I suppose, but this is practically all we've got in the realm of knowledge written by and for grownups. and as you've seen above they got it right though we can't explain it, we don't want to lose all our fear

CANNON BALLS !!! DID YOU KNOW THIS?
It was necessary to keep a good supply of cannon balls near the cannon on old war ships. But how to prevent them from rolling about the deck was the problem.
The best storage method devised was to stack them as a square based pyramid, with one ball on top, resting on four, resting on nine, which rested on sixteen.
Thus, a supply of 30 cannon balls could be stacked in a small area right next to the cannon. There was only one problem -- how to prevent the bottom layer from sliding/rolling from under the others.
The solution was a metal plate with 16 round indentations, called, for reasons unknown, a Monkey. But if this plate were made of iron, the iron balls would quickly rust to it. The solution to the rusting problem was to make them of brass - hence, Brass Monkeys.
Few landlubbers realize that brass contracts much more and much faster than iron when chilled. Consequently, when the temperature dropped too far, the brass indentations would shrink so much that the iron cannon balls would come right off the monkey.
Thus, it was quite literally, cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey. And all this time, you thought that was just a vulgar expression, didn't you? You must send this fabulous bit of historical knowledge to at least a few friends.
