Note: Owner Information Source
PreColumbian Master; Panama Gold
Note: Object Description
9 gold beads. 8 of the beads are very thin sheet/sheathing that may have gone over a core material and 1 of them appears slightly thicker and is biconical in shape
Note: Owner Accession
Found accession docs in NMNH Hardcopy files
Note: Research Notes
Find 346-1: Find contained the remains of a child, the Smoked ware plate, three doglike animals modeled in a resinlike substance, nine gold beads, several stone beads, a pearl, and several concretions or bezoar stones
Note: Bibliographic References
Site Report: Ladd (1968) Archaeological investigations into the Parita and Santa Maria Zones.
Note: Condition Review
8 of the beads are deformed and have cracks and tears through them. Only one of the beads appears to be in its original shape. They have a small amount of accretions and burial dirt on their surface but are othewise clean and in good condition. There is some light scratching of the gold surfaces
Note: Follow-up Notes
Special. Image beads with ESEM-EDS. May be able to see structure, measure thickness, and locate joins -Also, there are other hemispherical bead like objects with them. Consider analyzing the accretions/other beads? FTIR or Raman
