title: Tell-tale teeth: abrasion from the traditional clay pipe.
abstract: The long story of the once very widespread clay pipe has a minor but significant odontological aspect: some clay-pipe smokers may be characterized by a distinctive abrasion pattern of the teeth. The marks in question are of special interest to the archaeologist; attention is here directed particularly to the Scandinavian experience.
