Blue glass bead, probably Roman in date.
It is circular in plan with a central circular perforation which has a diameter of 4.11mm. The bead is of even thickness all the way around. There are a few small depressions in the surface, probably due to air bubbles when the bead was made.

Record ID: DUR-CEC0D8
Object type: BEAD
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Blue opaque glass diamond-faceted bead of uncertain date.
It is 8mm long and 5mm in diameter. It is rectangular with facetted corners at each end. There is a central cylindrical hole running the length of the bead.
It is possibly Roman or Early Medieval in date but it is impossible to be certain when found as a stray find. Guido’s book on Anglo-Saxon beads (1999, 50-51) says they could be Roman but some are also found in 6th century (and later) graves.
