Humankind has fostered an appreciation of beads as objects of beauty, no matter the country or religion. Beads have been used not only for adornment, but as status symbols and protective amulets in ancient, ethnic and contemporary cultures. Bone beads are one of the first styles of beads fashioned by mankind.
Using the bones can help use up resources that otherwise would become waste as well as honoring the animal.
