A collection of beads

This collection was found from the eroding surface of Bawani, a site not far from Harappa that dates from the 3rd century BC. The red brown beads are glass beads of the Early Historic Period showing a continuity with the glazing technology of red faience from the Harappan to the Early Historic Period.
