(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The Catlinite , also called pipestone , it is a brown-brown-red claye originally originally from North America. Due to its very fine graininess, it is easily worked and was used by Native Americans to manufacture pipes and Calumet. Painting by G. Catlin depicting Catlinite’s quarry. (1836) Stove of a pipe in catlinite, representing an owl and dating back to the early twentieth century, exhibited at the Brooklyn Museum. Catlinite owes its name to the American painter and writer George Catlin. Between 1830 and 1836 he undertook several trips in which he visited a large number of Indian tribes especially along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers and their main tributaries and in the area of \u200b\u200bthe great plains. Catlin had noticed the ritual custom of the Indians to smoke in a long pipe with a long torch (Calumet) during religious ceremonies, or in moments of particular importance both in peace and war time. In particular, great importance was given to the Calumet whose stove was formed by a particular dark red stone that came from a unique quarry located between the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, in the south-west of Minnesota. The place where the quarry of this stone was located, which Catlin called pipestone , he was considered sacred by the Indians, as they believed that it was the substance from which in great spirit he had created man. Therefore Catlin’s request to visit the quarry was initially unexpected. In particular, the Sioux Santee, who were the custodians of the quarry, were those who most opposed to this request since the presence on the site of non-Indian was considered by them a sacrilege. Subsequently, however, both for the insistence of Catlin, and for the fact that he had made himself appreciated by the Indians as a person who had no profit and who was actually interested in knowing the Indian uses and traditions, they agreed on this journey , and indeed they guided catlin on the quarry. The journey to the quarry (1836) and the impressions of Catlin were then reported in his book Life among the Indians [first] and in his other writings referring to that experience. Catlin also painted a picture known as Pipestone Quarry on the Coteau Prairies in which I try to show both the scientific and ethnographic part of this experience.        (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Catlin collected some fragments of the stone, which he believed was a variety of steatitis, and I send them to Charles Thomas Jackson, a well -known mineralogist of Boston. These analyze the material received and discovered that it was not steatitis, but a new variety of rock, a sort of agalmatolitis that he called Catlinite in honor of those who had given it to him. The name Catlinite is often abused as it is referred to any red claye -colored clayey to produce pipes. This term should be used only for rocks having a specific chemical composition, while the others should be called pipestone . [2] The first chemical analysis on Catlinite was carried out in 1836 by the aforementioned prof. Jackson and published in 1839 in American Journal of Science .According to this analysis, the main defects present in the catlinite were: [3] ^  Catlin, On. citata , pag. 164 – 173  ^  George Rapp, Archaeomineralogy , Springer Science & Business Media, 2009,  pag. 135.  ^  Francesco Selmi :, General dictionary of chemistry.
