i agree with Sajen - most of these I've seen are made of bone discs.


Nice to have a complete example.

I used to have this, I was told it was a pregnancy support belt. The discs were shells.

Were the shells for the more affluent since they came from lowland coastal areas, acquiring them would likely mean a purchase or barter, just a thought.
