Description
Wooden disks with textile and cord knots and loops preserved, and seven packed cloth parcel beads on two segments of original stringing. Stoner (2018) suggested that the pattern of breaking on the wooden rings and the attachment of textile suggests something similar to curtain rings; perhaps a curtain reused as burial shroud.
