This unique discovery of a coiled copper-alloy wire necklace (H2000/2242-01) has traces of fibers preserved on the inside. This is among the earliest evidence for finely made wire in the Indus Valley and dates to approximately 2450 BC (Harappa, Trench 54, early Period 3B). This type of wire is likely to have been made by drawing the wire through a series of graduated perforations.
