Ancient Suns

Very large, and judging from the patina and stringing hole wear, very ancient, Mayan tubular bead. This bead, may pre-date the Mayan Era, and date further back to the Olmec “mother culture”. This is a very solid bead, with a tiny old chip, close to one of the stringing hole ends(this can be seen in the last photo); otherwise the bead is in excellent condition.
