Title	Pipe, Platform Hawk Effigy.
Subject	Effigies.; Hopewell culture.; Mound-builders.; Stone carving.; Tobacco pipes.; Woodland culture.
Description	Platform: 123 mm long, 52 mm wide (27 mm anterior, 20 mm posterior), 10 mm deep; Bowl: 44 mm high, 18 mm diameter; Effigy: 55 mm high, 81 mm long, 41 mm wide.; This pipe is part of a large collection of pipes found at Tremper Mound. Most of the pipes were carved of Ohio pipestone, a silica-based material that can be easily carved when freshly quarried from the hills east of the Scioto River. The pipes represent a variety of animals significant to the Hopewell, including owls, wolves, deer and beaver. Skilled Hopewell craftsmen carved the pipes with flint knives and some are embellished with pearls or copper.; This item was on display in the First Ohioans Exhibit at the Ohio Historical Center (1986-2006).; This item is included in Windows to Our Collections at the Ohio Historical Center in Columbus (opened July 2006).
Type	Limestone.; Pipes (smoking equipment)

Description-Abstract	Effigy of a hawk, identified as an eagle by William C. Mills, shows the bird standing on the pipe platform. Basic facial features--cheek patch, feathers on head--are indicated with incised lines in a manner identical to those of the other hawk effigies in the William D. Tremper Collection. Eyes are shallowly drilled (approximately 3 mm in diameter). There is one band of zig-zag lines on the bird's chest. Wing feathers are indicated by parallel and cross-hatched lines. Wing tips are restored as being crossed over the tail. Legs and feet are not indicated. The surface of the pipe has weathered, so some details may have been lost. The left side of the bowl just below the left wing and the right side of bowl just above the platform have been restored. Curvature of the platform is much greater than any of the other Tremper effigies. Although most pipes excavated from the Tremper mound are made of pipestone, this pipe is made of coral limestone that is light gray and pale brown.
Format-Extent	1 pipe : light gray, pale brown ; 89 x 52 x 123 mm.
Format-Medium	Limestone, coral ; carved, ground, polished, drilled.
Coverage-Spatial	United States--Ohio--Scioto--Rush Township.
