547, b. DOUBLE CIRCLET
See 256, NNNN, 620-(123) also 79, e.

The broken parts of a double circlet of unknown use.

It is made up of cylindrical sections of highly polished black
resinous material and white crystalline limestone, which are
threaded alternate upon a copper (? bronze) core; the resinous
sections are inlaid with gold, the crystalline limestone
sections with quartz backed with a red pigment, and the
complete circlets terminate in a double lotiform clasp of
gold, the connecting fastening of which is missing.

Although this curious double circlet is only 11 cents. in
diameter (min. measurement), it resembles the Bedouin head-band called "El Agal", and may possibly be some form of head-dress.
