Thank you to @cosmocafe for coloring the first panel! They have been giving me a lot of cool ideas and coloring a few things- I love their art and they are a very cool person if you want to check them out!!!
Sorry for the shorter updates- BUT Leo's Draxum given name was finally revealed! Is my Draxum design alright? 0^0
If you want some information about why I named him Heishi, here it is:

Now- did I at first read "shell" and not read the rest of the paragraph saying it was talking about beads? Yes. Did I fall in love with the name meaning of both "shell" and "soldier" before I read any further? Yes.

This has sold already but I thought you might be interested to see how I used what I think is an Anglo-Saxon buckle plate I found recently at a flea market. The buckle plate was used to attach the leather or textile to the buckle, making the join stronger. These plates were made either of a single sheet of cast metal or a folded rectangular sheet of metal. These I think have rivets that would have held the textile/leather. The ancient patina and texture with the turquoise and bronze really is something special and sits so well with the ceramic scarab beetle that I made from a mold I made of a 1920's Egyptian Revival milk glass bead. Other artefacts include Roman glass beads, reclaimed heishi, lava stone and carved bone beads. . . . #artefactjewelry #thingsImade #metaldetectingfinds #beltbuckle #romanglass #archeologyinspired #scarabbeetle #egyptianrevival #sustainablejewelry #reclaimedbeads #heishibeads https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp2Q2v0IhdU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Pueblo Jewelers of the Southwest
Tumblr media
In the world of Pueblo artisans, the jewelry makers are second in number to the pottery makers. Over the generations, this ancient craft has taken on numerous forms. On the meticulous end of the spectrum, there are those who make tiny beads, called heishi, first produced at today's Santo Domingo (Kewa) Pueblo in prehistoric times, with hand-pump drills and stone drill bits, and then strung as necklaces. From there, Pueblo jewelry runs from semi-precious stones set in silver to contemporary works, made with gold and precious gemstones. In between are tufa-castings (a process using a carved volcanic stone as a mold for molten silver or gold); hammered metal; handmade silver beads; choruses of tiny bird effigies carved from stone and strung; classic concho belts; large seashells covered in mosaic stonework; and some of the most prized lapidary work in the world, famously done by Zuni Pueblo artists. There are works in stainless steel cut to a fine edge, "shadow boxes" (where a design is cut out of a sheet of burnished silver, which is then affixed to an underlying piece of blackened silver, thereby creating an image in negative space), as well as bracelets, rings, bolo ties, and belt buckles, all worn today by design-savvy buyers from around the world.
Steve LaRance, of Hopi and Assiniboine heritage, gets his tufa on the Hopi Reservation from deposits created by the San Francisco Peaks. To gather what he needs, he has to drive a four-wheel drive pickup, find an isolated spot, and spend a day digging with shovels and picks. The tufa comes out in chunks, in sizes that range from bowling ball to suitcase. This will generally provide enough raw material for a year's work.
Steve and his wife and jewelry-making partner, Marian Denipah, moved from Arizona some years back to Marian's homelands, just a stone's throw from the lazy Rio Grande on Ohkay Owingeh land in northern New Mexico. In addition to their various lines of jewelry, they have also produced a batch of children and grandchildren that have made marks of their own. One daughter is a physician; another, along with her brother, spent a decade as principal dancers for Cirque du Soleil. Today, Steve and Marian oversee a Native youth dance troupe called the Lightning Boy Foundation, which travels the world in an effort to spread Pueblo values and skills.
Santo Domingo is one of the Rio Grande Pueblos in Northern New Mexico. For centuries the Pueblo people have been mining turquoise at Cerrillos, south of what is now Santa Fe, and have been acquiring other turquoise from as far away as Nevada, California and Colorado.
The Pueblo jewelers traveled south to the Gulf and west to the Pacific for shell when they couldn't trade for it. Jet and red colored rock was found nearby and used in mosaics and other jewelry. Eventually coral was introduced by the Spanish and replaced the red rock. These colorful stones were made into beads and mosaics for decoration and ceremonies.
The people of Santo Domingo became known for making the best disc beads and, along with the Zuni people, for producing the best inlay in turquoise, jet, shell and coral on shell and wood bases. The jewelers of Santo Domingo still produce the finest handmade beads and mosaics. Many of their children acquire drills and learn to make beads at a very young age. You can shop online for authentic Pueblo jewelry at PuebloDirect.com.

Iron Age Celtic (La Tene) necklace I'm working on.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Still not quite what I want, but I'm happy that I can (with minor loss of fingerprints) drill the holes on the shell heishi beads out larger to work with heavier cord.
There's no indication either way whether the museum stringing (which I've more or less copied in the first image) was in any way representative of how the beads were found. In fact, this dig was many decades ago and very often back then no attempt was made to record the relative positioning of the beads at all. That gives me creative license I guess, but what I actually want is accuracy, so, bah.
