Original Message:   Catalog #6166 - Black Sea Trade.....

A sweet looking short string of bumpy-eye type beads showing an iridescent patina and three matching pairs of beads. They are about 9 x 9 mm up to 14 x 14 mm in size. From the Anatolian or southern side of the Black Sea, these are thought to date from about 400 to 600 AD (Roman-Ostrogothic), but the date could easily go earlier or even later. Similar type beads have been seen from the Phoenician trade era up to the late first millennium AD. Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
