Apron2790/4

Heavy square canvas apron with beadwork decoration on the front. Canvas is rolled and stitched at the top edge to create a waist band, across which are stitched four strings of large white beads and through which is knotted one skin tie. A thick blue bead trim runs around the edge of the horizontal bands of beads that form a white ground, with non-beaded negative spaces at the top and dark blue, green, purple and black house designs at the bottom.

Bead, Glass45KI51D/80-313

This is a opaque blue glass bead. A hole is drilled through the center, artifact is somewhat squared in shape. Exhibited at Southwest Historical Society (2000-2001 - see Loan #116). At the time, this object hadn't been cataloged, and was temporarily numbered 45KI51/3b. This bead was found in an envelope with one other bead (45KI51D/80-312). These beads were also separately numbered 575 and 576 (80-312 and 80-313, respectively). It is unknown how this 500-series numbering system was developed or used, but this needs to be figured out. The envelope in which they were stored, also appeared to have held 45KI51D/80-314 and 80-315, but these were not found in the envelope. Note that the envelope and the corresponding 1980 Artifact Catalog list four beads, 80-312 to 80-315 as excavated from the same unit (10N 6W) and level (CL1A), and placed in bag #46. It is unclear which bead was assigned which number. Since only two beads were found in the envelope, we assigned them 80-312 and 80-313. L.Phillips, 11/26/2001.
