This ceramic pipe was collected from the Saxman site in Rice County and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 2017. The tubular shaped pipe, sometimes called a "cloud blower," has an incised line around the rim of the bowl, rows of punctates, and a fan- or fin-shaped stem end. The Saxman site, a large Great Bend aspect village, was occupied by the ancestral Wichita.
