I am aging...
Whereas the story just told is reasonably accurate, I made a mistake when transcribing the picture's caption.The caption 169 corresponds actually to the golden torque (also to be seen on the picture on page 164). The caption for necklace with carnelian beads reads:

170
Oval beads and two melon beads strung
II-I century before J.C.
Carnelian, glass. D. 1-0,6 , 2,1-1,3
Alitoub. Aksaļ District. Rostov.
Kurgan 3 ("Krestovyi"), grave 20
Excavated by V.P.Chilov
Rostov Museum. Inv. KP 2571/5068 and 2571/5012
