Peace Pipes is the most important divine staff of Indian Tribes concerning many interesting stories. The people use it to salute the super-natural powers. During a major ritual ceremony , the leader would point the pipe to the sky, the ground and the four directions, then they smoke the pipe and pass it around, from right to left. None could enter or leave the teepee until the smoke ceremony was completed. They believe that, in that way, they could receive what they had prayed for and live happily.
