Original Message: Prehistoric hematite beads from Mexico |
---|
Many years ago an archaeologist working in Mexico uncovered a large cache of magnetic hematite beads (or perforated objects) at a prehistoric site. She contacted me via Pete Francis. I responded that I thought they were not likely ornaments due to their excessive weight and probably had another use. She thought they were. Unfortunately, these objects were never published to my knowledge, and I had long forgotten about them until this posting jogged my memory.
