Havana people carved frogs on the “platform” type of these objects, whose steatite designs were traded northeast from Appalachia in the Hamilton phase. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name these objects for which catlinite was quarried from 1000 BCE at a national monument seized from the Yankton people in Minnesota. Black Elk recorded White Buffalo Calf Woman giving these objects to the Lakota.
ANSWER: pipes [accept pipestone or Pipestone National Monument; accept peace pipes, calumets, chalumets, chanunpas, čhaŋnúŋpas, tube pipes, platform pipes, or Sterling pipes]
[10h] This culture interred a 7-inch effigy pipe of a man with earspools. West Virginia’s conical Grave Creek Mound is attributed to this Woodland Period culture, whose engraved tablets may have been printing blocks.
ANSWER: Adena culture [accept Adena period, Adena people, Adena Mound, Adena pipe, Adena tablets, or Adena Man]
[10e] Ohio’s effigy mounds shaped like an alligator and this animal were attributed to the Adena culture before they were dated to the later Fort Ancient period.
