Bone Beads

Beads are a decorative item that is threaded and used to create jewelry and other items. Decorating clothing and other items is a practice that is very old. One of the first type of beads that were made were bone beads. These beads are made from actual bones which are shaped and threaded to use in decorating. Some animals had bones that seemed just right for bone beads. Chicken bones were already hollow and did not need to be pierced like other beads. These could be strung with little or no alterations. Snake bones were also popularly used for bone beads.

Bone beads were often important in decorations because they had symbolic meanings. Most items at this time were related to rituals, spirits, and gods. Bone beads also played a part in these rituals and were used for signal specific things. Certain members of a tribe may have worn certain bone beads or may have had a certain number of bone beads.
