Facts and Comments

  • Was Tobacco Smoked in the Pueblo Region in Pre-Spanish Times?

  • Volney H. Jones
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    25 January 2017, pp. 451-456

  • In discussing recently the modern cultivation of tobacco among the Pueblo Indians, Leslie A. White remarked that “archaeologists have no evidence of the use of tobacco among the Pueblos in prehistoric times.” He further added that it seems that “tobacco was not used among the Pueblos prior to the advent of the white man.” These statements are counter to the rather firmly established opinion that tobacco must have been smoked in the pipes which are found in archaeological sites in the Southwest. As rumblings of consternation and dissent have been provoked by White's remarks, it seems in order to review briefly some of the data relative to this question.

    Less surprise might have been occasioned had White worded his remark to read that no direct or tangible evidence of tobacco has come from archaeological sites in the area.

Facts and Comments

  • A Quiackeson House in Eastern Maryland

  • William B. Marye
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    25 January 2017, p. 456

  • In the July, 1936 and January, 1937 numbers of American Antiquity, under the head of “Correspondence,” there were published certain data, bearing mostly on the subject of the burial customs of the Indians of eastern Maryland, which I had gathered together from several contemporary sources. In this connection I called attention to the occurrence in Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina of place-names of more or less ancient date which embody the word “quiackeson,” or another of its various forms, giving this as evidence of the former existence of the mortuary temples called “quiackeson houses” in those places.
