This is a small, tubular, opaque red glass bead with a black core. This bead is closest to type IIIa1 in the system derived by Kenneth and Martha Kidd, which is often used by archaeologists to classify beads. This is a drawn bead-- drawn glass beads are made by pulling, or "drawing," molten glass into long hollow tubes. The tubes are then cut into pieces and then either remain as tubular beads or have their edges rounded. Dusti Bridges, Archaeologist
