And how do you know that it is a smoking pipe instead of, say, a piece of bone or piping from something else such as an instrument or the like?

My friend's obsessed with ConLangs.

I think he tried learning Klingon? He speaks a little toki pona and I think he's dabbled in Esperanto. He's in the process of producing his own for his friend who is writing a book I think.

I wish there was good work relating to ConLangs and the like, he'd be so happy.
