Pigeon \Pi"geon\, n. [F., fr. L. pipio a young pipping or
chirping bird, fr. pipire to peep, chirp. Cf. {Peep} to

numerous species occur in nearly all parts of the world.

Note: The common domestic pigeon, or dove, was derived from
the Old World rock pigeon or rock dove ({Columba
livia}), common in cities. It has given rise to
numerous very remarkable varieties, such as the
carrier, fantail, nun, pouter, tumbler, etc. The common
wild pigeon of the Eastern United States is the
{Mourning dove} ({Zenaida macroura}, called also
{Carolina dove}). Before the 19th century, the most
common pigeon was the passenger pigeon, but that
species is now extinct. See {Passenger pigeon}, and

pigeon}, {Ground pigeon}, {Queen pigeon}, {Stock

Pigeon
Pigeons are mentioned as among the offerings which, by divine
appointment, Abram presented unto the Lord (Gen. 15:9). They
were afterwards enumerated among the sin-offerings (Lev. 1:14;
12:6), and the law provided that those who could not offer a
lamb might offer two young pigeons (5:7; comp. Luke 2:24). (See {DOVE}.)
