Gourd: Birdhouse Bottle (Heirloom) (Lagenaria siceraria)

$1.00 - $5.60

The origin of gourds has been a subject of debate for decades. Archaeological findings seem to show that Asia first domesticated the gourd for use as a container, though Africa and several island nations such as Polynesia and New Zealand also have an early history of using gourds as fishing floats, bottles, or musical instruments. Recent research shows that North America's gourds are nearly as old as those of Asia, which seems to suggest that early peoples who settled in the New World brought gourds with them.
