Yes, some nice beads among the lot. Quite a few, actually!

Do not confuse "Morfia" with "Dhar Verkrun". They are different kind of beads, though some of them might be from the same period and area (Syria, most likely - leave alone Pinder-Wilson offered al-Fustat as maker, hence coining the name "Fustat Fused Rod Beads"). "Dhar Verkrun" ("House of the turtle" in Arabic) are - unlike "Morfia" - eye beads.

Tasard posted a few of those some time ago!
