Chillum (pipe)
A chillum, or chilam, is a straight conical smoking pipe traditionally made of either clay or a soft stone (such as Soapstone, steatite or catlinite). It was used popularly in India in the eighteenth century and still often used to smoke marijuana. A small stone is often used as a stopper in the stem. The style of pipe spread to Africa, and has been known in the Americas since the 1960s. A chillum pipe is used in Rastafari rituals. History According to Alfred Dunhill, Africans have long employed chillum-style pipes for smoking cannabis (drug), cannabis and later tobacco. Gourds and various horns were often employed while conical bowls were common in Uganda.

The stem of the chibouk generally ranges between 4 and 5 ft. (1.2 and 1.5 m), much longer than even Western churchwarden pipes. While primarily known as a Turkish pipe, the chibouk was once popular across the Ottoman Empire and in Iran as well. Like Chinese opium pipes, chibouk are antiquated smoking devices, and are rarely, if at all produced in modern times. Their use in Turkey and the Middle East may have died out with the growing popularity of the hookah and cigarettes. Old chibouk and chibouk bowls can still be purchased as antiques. Similar pipes were once used in North Africa to smoke hashish. Some specialized chibouk were produced to act as long, cigarette-holding pipes. ...
