VIKING BEAD ASSORTMENT, 9th-10th CENTURY

Vikings loved beads and plundered or traded for them throughout the known world. And, as beads historically had great value, many were centuries old when they were collected by Vikings. This broad array of beads is well documented on Scandinavian museums and archaeology sites. See Text and Towel for related/identical examples found in Denmark. 20 pieces: ceramic, bone, and stone.
