Abstract

The assemblages of a young female grave (~3rd–4th century AD), at the cemetery next to the limes mutatio at Bátaszék-Lajvér, Hungary, included an armlet made of 22 pieces of flat, elliptical and decorated jet beads. This article presents a detailed description of the armlet and a discussion of the results of a material analysis – petrological and vitrinite reflectance – performed on samples of the beads.
