content: Multiple tubular beaded strands with 2 beaded pendants. Each pendant consists of 8 strands, most of which end with a Job's Tears bead. Collector calls this "necklace (with tie)." Dr. Newton says this was obtained from and made by Piphu, a 28 y/o female who recently returned from the Apinaye village of Mariazinha, where she was married, and brought this necklace from there. It is used by either a boy or a girl at "festa" time. It is called a ha?hereyarim. Another informant gives this information: sometimes this style necklace is called he? herinda because the tubular beads are made of rubber or "borracha" in Portuguese. Another term is kroinye, because they look like espin de cuando (porcupine quill in Portuguese). the word for porcupine is kroi. It is also called kenremeperen, because it is of mixed beads and rubber. Cordage is 2z tucum/caroa. Beads are Job's Tears, rubber/plastic tubular bead and glass. Price paid: .75 crn. Purchased with field number 1968-245, 246, 248.
