Summary/Abstract: Ancient Russian sites offer beads manufactured in some rare for this territory techniques. One of such finds is a bead with a ceramic tube at its core, which comes from the burial ground at Dregli village (Novgorod). A workshop that produced such beads was found on Afrasiab hillfort and can be dated to the 9th — 10th centuries, according to ceramic materials. Another bead comes from Gnezdovo settlement (Smolensk): it is a copper tube glazed by colorless glass. The latter finds analogies among Central European antiquities of the 7th — 10th centuries.
