8011C
| Description (Catalog Card): | Beads. Very large carnelians. Double conoids and one or two bugles. These were strung in 4 parallel strings [A-D] (one set made up with a similarly shaped gold bead) apparently with lapis balls between the carenlians, but this was not quite certain. [see also U.8017]1 |

| Notes: | It is not clear whether Penn Museum B16811 represents all 4 rows of carnelian and lapis beads reported as U.8011 or only one of them. Since one of the rows in the field notes is reported as gold and lapis, and since B16805 is also reported as U.8011, it seems unlikely and thus all four rows have been separated into sub-letters in this database. |
