calumetn.

/ˈkaljʊmɪt/

Etymology: < French calumet (Norman form of chalumet), given by the French in Canada to plants of which the stems serve as pipe-tubes, and to the Indian pipe. A parallel form to chalumeau, in Old French chalemel = Provençal calamel < Latin calamellus, diminutive of calamus reed. The u in chalumeau began in the 16th cent., and chalumet, calumet, was evidently modelled on it in the 17th cent. Charlevoix (1721) says ‘Le calumet est un mot Normand, qui veut dire chalumeau, et est proprement le tuyau d'une pipe.’

A tobacco-pipe with a bowl of clay or stone, and a long reed stem carved and ornamented with feathers. It is used among the American Indians as a symbol of peace or friendship. To accept the calumet is to welcome terms of peace offered, to refuse it is to reject them.
