Mapping the Indo-Pacific Beads Vis-a-Vis Papanaidupet

Mapping the Indo-Pacific Beads vis-a-vis Papanaidupet is not only about beads, bead production cycle, people involved in their manufacture, and traditional bead users, but also about the most important glass bead city of the world. The archaeological community has spent considerable time and energy in constructing ancient cities with bead workshops and has formulated many hypotheses about them. This is the first and last time that a bead city identical to those of 2,500 years old has been recorded ethnographically and visually in full details.
