- Wampum Shell Beads
|
|
US - Northeast |
- A bead researcher can't say enough about wampum. It is the most written about bead in the world. It is the most important bead in American history. Yet, few people know what it is. Wampum (wampumpeake) consists of small, tubular beads made of white or violet sea shells. True or "council" wampum is about a quarter of an inch (6 mm) long and half as wide. Larger wampum beads were made in white-run factories in New York and New Jersey, the last one closing about 100 years ago.
