As one of the largest closely dated assemblages of 17th-century English clay pipes from anywhere in the world, this study of the Port Royal Pipes contributes significantly to the study of pipes from excavations, their dating, sourcing, and interpretation in a social context. The primary data used for the study are the 21,575 kaolin clay smoking pipes excavated during the 1981 to 1990 field seasons at Port Royal, Jamaica, directed by Donny L. Hamilton from the Nautical Archaeology Program at Texas A&M University (TAMU) and the Institute of Nautical Archaeology (INA) and in cooperation with the Jamaica National Heritage Trust. Its aim is to provide archaeologists and other researchers with a comparative collection that ranges from 1655 to 1850, reflecting three centuries of pipesmoking in English colonial culture and society.
