In the article, there is a link to the actual research paper. On there, you can download the full PDF, including some (small) pictures of the beads.
Interesting stuff!

Did you see the beads??

Floor, it says you have to subscribe to the journal to be able to download it. Were you able to download it? What do the beads look like?

That's odd. Before I could download it without registrering, but not anymore.
I do not know a lot about shell beads, but they appeared fairly common in shape similar to later shell beads.
Should have saved it.....
