pepperbox
Seasoning table container
A pepperbox is an early type of repeating pistol with multiple barrels that rotate to fire in succession—the barrels clustered like holes in a pepper shaker.
The design preceded the revolver, which uses a single barrel with a rotating cylinder.
Pepperbox also refers to a small container with a perforated top for sprinkling pepper.
