Scene from a Shaker School in 19th Century USA, engraving from The Communistic Societies of the United States, by Charles Nordoff, 1875. Shakers settled in colonial America, with initial settlements in New Lebanon, New York (called Mount Lebanon after 1861) and what is now Watervliet. Shakers today are mostly known for their celibate and communal lifestyle, pacifism, and their model of equality of the sexes, which they institutionalized in their society in the 1780s. They are also known for their simple living, architecture and furniture. (Wikipedia)
