Trowbridge says "all the beads in tray 2721 were exposed when the entire textile collection was being cleaned and unfolded" Therefore, these could be from any textiles in the entire collection and there is no way to match them with the textile with which they may have been associated originally. Not weighed because of fragility of textile. Part 7 of 11
