And I think what is really fun, is we can relate to the people who made these. the work they put into them, how good they felt when the adorned someone- and often, in ancient times and other cultures, your beads and jewelry represented status and such.

It is amazing how stone and clay bead shapes have not really changed over the centuries. The design of the necklaces are still being designed this way today.<br />ThereseTherese's Treasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11048140538791568162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271508841165439447.post-37276354658309876372012-05-06T12:41:19.576-04:002012-05-06T12:41:19.576-04:00Love this post!
