These smoking pipes were found at Lake Valencia, in Venezuela. In prehistoric times the site (Isla de la Culebra - island of the snake) was an island, now it is a peninsula.

These pieces date from about 800 BC - 1200 AD. The high degree of working suggests the latter end of this period.

Cave drawings from this period and region depict pipes being smoked.
