Comment | worked bones and teeth were used as jewelry sets, e.g. pierced rib segments, diaphysis segments --> necklaces; carved flat bone pendants; a few marine shells were used as jewelry; stone ornaments: the burials were mostly without offerings or personal belongings, sometimes beads and ornamental pieces as stray finds in open areas, refuse deposits or inside building rubble; especially tiny pierced stone beads, but rarely in their primary context as necklace; there also were some larger, zoomorphic beads or pendants (horse, goat, deer heads) stones: pyrite, goethite, limestone, turquoise, malachite, azurite, volcanic rocks, obsidian (traded from Cappadocia to Central and Eastern Anatolia, Cilicia and farther, maybe even from the Taurus Mountains or the Iran) |
