Archaeologist Thomas Emerson and his colleagues found that the Illinois Hopewell people had a different relationship to their pipestone pipes than the Hopewell people of Ohio, who imported their pipes from Illinois makers. The Hopewell era extended from about 50 B.C. to A.D. 250. Credit: Photo by L. Brian Stauffer
