<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ex Libris, post: 4462783, member: 14916&quot;]A few years ago I bought this small showcase with some flint tools and some glass beads inside.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]385246[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>On one of the files was a label glued, written in French. I can decipher a few parts, but I cannot read it entirely, but I see the name &quot;Holsbeeck&quot;. Holsbeek is a place in Belgium near Louvain. With some fantasy I also can read the date&nbsp; 27 June(?) 1879, what I think is the year these finds have been found. Can anyone read more of this label?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]385249[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>There was also another very worn label in the case.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]385259[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I went to a specialist for old flint and he said I had a few tools, a hand axe and a sharpening stone. The flint tools were probably from the Neolithic age. He didn&#039;t know anything about the glass beads. So I hoped someone could tell me more about these beans. There are several colors, sizes and shapes in this small collection. Can anyone say a bit more about these beads. Are they medieval or older? Are these beads from the same period? So could these come from one necklace for example?</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]385252[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorted by type</p><p>[ATTACH=full]385254[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>The object in the bottom are two nuts, connected by a piece of rope.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you for any information <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
