VI.—Remarks on a Coloured Drawing of some Ancient Beads, executed by Benjamin Nightingale, Esq., from Specimens in his possession. By John Yonge Akerman, Esq., Secretary
View through CrossRef
By the kindness of Mr. Nightingale I am enabled to lay before the Society a drawing of various Ancient Beads in his collection.I know of no objects of antiquity which, while they present so distinct a character, are at the same time so difficult to assign to a precise period, as these beads. Some may be ascribed with tolerable certainty to particular countries; but others are so widely distributed as to render the place of their fabrication a difficult point to settle.
