8001B (none) (none) (none) Cockle shells. (A) [A and D] a pair, containing white pigment. (B) single shell containing green pigment. (C) [C and E] a pair containing yellow pigment.
8001C (none) (none) (none) Cockle shells. (A) [A and D] a pair, containing white pigment. (B) single shell containing green pigment. (C) [C and E] a pair containing yellow pigment.
8002 (none) 1928,1009.68 (none) Gold and lapis chain. A very fine chain of gold wire links. Six lengths of chain connecting 5 double conoid lapis beads. The chain is square in section.
8003 (none) 1928,1009.175 (none) Gold diadem. Made of fairly heavy strip gold, plain, but with a line of minute punctures along each edge.
8004 (none) 1928,1009.84 (none) Large ball bead of lapis with gold caps. Sphere with ribbed sides.
8005 (none) (none) (none) Gold ornament. A pear-shaped bead(?) pierced longitudinally, on which is perched a small bird apparently pecking at the fruit. In spite of the minute size the bird is well done and the eye and all the feathers are marked.
8006 (none) (none) B16889 Cylinder seal. Lapis lazuli. 2 registers: above, 2 seated figures, table and door. Below, 2 animals? Very deep cutting and most primitive style.
8007A (none) (none) B16770 Silver plaque in two parts. [A] A circular plaque diam 009, part of the edge broken away; in center, raised electrum boss surrounded by six silver bosses; round them a border of two double raised concentric bands with fine radial lines between; folded over this and sticking to it when found was a second piece of silver with copper backing apparently broken off from where the edge of the circle is missing; the shape of the whole object would look like an elaborate buckle thus [drawing]. [B] A copper pin 0075 long was corroded on the back [C] (as were many beads) but need not belong to it. The three are cataloged under the same number.
8007B (none) (none) B17462 Silver plaque in two parts. [A] A circular plaque diam 009, part of the edge broken away; in center, raised electrum boss surrounded by six silver bosses; round them a border of two double raised concentric bands with fine radial lines between; folded over this and sticking to it when found was a second piece of silver with copper backing apparently broken off from where the edge of the circle is missing; the shape of the whole object would look like an elaborate buckle thus [drawing]. [B] A copper pin 0075 long was corroded on the back [C] (as were many beads) but need not belong to it. The three are cataloged under the same number.
8008 (none) (none) B16815 Lapis lazuli beads. A great number, all small, some minute. With lapis spacers for 3 parallel strings.
8009 (none) (none) B17622 White shell beads. All small, mostly minute: several thousands of them, with one white spacer.
8010 (none) (none) B17667 Beads. Carnelian. Mostly minute ring beads. With them a few small balls etc.
8011A (none) (none) B16811 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 carnelians, but this was not quite certain. [see also U.8017]
8012 (none) (none) B16811 Beads. 15 lapis ball beads of different sizes but all large: some are ribbed. Perhaps strung up with U.8011.
8013A (none) (none) B17084 [A and B] Two silver bracelets. Made of three twists of wire. To one of these is attached by corrosion an [C] object of silver apparently containing a cockle shell [D]; the cockle shell has in it green pigment and was covered by a silver shell (broken) thus: [drawing] though it is impossible to say whether the shell is really belonging or only accidentally attached. Various beads are also attached by corrosion to the bracelet and also [E] an eye of lapis with white shell filling.
8013D (none) (none) B16838 [A and B] Two silver bracelets. Made of three twists of wire. To one of these is attached by corrosion an [C] object of silver apparently containing a cockle shell [D]; the cockle shell has in it green pigment and was covered by a silver shell (broken) thus: [drawing] though it is impossible to say whether the shell is really belonging or only accidentally attached. Various beads are also attached by corrosion to the bracelet and also [E] an eye of lapis with white shell filling.
8014 (none) 1928,1009.189 (none) Copper pin. The head in the shape of a human hand with the thumb raised. [drawing 1:1]

8016 (none) B16765 (none) Copper pin. WIth ball head of carnelian and gold. Shaft broken and much of it missing. [type] V
8017 (none) (none) (none) Two gold beads. Elongated double conoids made of thin gold leaf over a core which has split and decayed, leaving the gold in fragments. These beads went with U.8011.
8018A (none) 1928,1009.81, 1928,1009.89 (none) Beads. Carnelian, agate, lapis and gold. [A] One string was of carnelian and gold. [B] One string of lapis and gold. [C] Agate beads were found touching each other end to end, so should form a string.
8019A (none) 1928,1009.142 (none) [A-B] Two lapis eye sockets. Intended to have shell iris set in (cf. one attached to U.8013)
8019B (none) (none) (none) Two lapis eye sockets [A-B]. Intended to have shell iris set in (cf. one attached to U.8013)
8020A (none) (none) (none) Two squares. [A] One of white bone. [B] One of dark grey stone. Each set with 5 inlay dots, black on the white square, white on the black, thus: [drawing 1:1]
