Notes: There is a mistake on the field card for G126A; It clearly says that U.16682 was found in this grave, but it is meant to read U.16683. G126A is a Larsa period grave with carnelian beads (U.16683), while G115 is a Neo_Babylonian grave with glass beads (U.16682).     
[1] U number given sub-letter because beads with this number are found in at least two different museums.
