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
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2012
Extract
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.
