The article focuses on finds of pipes for smoking tobacco from excavations in Medzhybizh fortress and in Horodok town (Khmelnitskyi regoin of Ukraine). Analogs to this collection items from various sites of Ukraine, South East and central Europe are examined. Here is an attempt to identify the local particularity of the different smoking pipes types spreading in Podillya in the 17th—18th centuries. Styles of pipes which have counterparts in the Black Sea, in the Central Ukraine and in the Balkans were widespread in the territory of Podillya in the second half of the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. The similarity of the pipes type and variations, the presence of the same varieties is also an indicator of the ways and time of the spread of technological and decorative traditions. Pipes are an indicator of the links between of some micro-regions with others. Variations of pipes show the presence of certain ethnic and social groups.
