Title
Glass bead
Description
English: The bead material consists of a monochrome opaque yellow glass with small bubbles. From the image it is unclear whether the brown specks visible on the surface are inclusions or remains of the soil.

Laid onto the body are two polychrome trails, marvered flush into the surface. One consists of opaque white, opaque dark blue and transparent greenish glass, the other of a trail consisting of a band of opaque red, opaque white opaque blue, opaque white and opaque red glass. Both trails were applied in short zigzag, but not twisted.

The bead has an eliptical cross section in the short axis and a near oval section in the long axis. The central perforation appears, as far as is checkable, cylindrical with no traces of drilling.
