通过对葡萄牙埃斯特雷马杜拉7个当代新石器时代晚期/铜器时代(公元前3500-2500年)遗址的3000多颗珠子和吊坠的分析,发现了两种主要模式:(1)大多数珠子在大小和形状上表现出高度标准化,并由当地材料制成;(2)少数是由非本地的、稀有的、视觉上独特的材料(如variscite、象牙)制成的,标准化程度较低,劳动密集型较大。对广泛材料的强调表明,不常见的装饰品可以作为具有特殊意义的“增值”材料,增强潜在的设计组合。对珠子、手镯、吊坠、饰板和磨制石器的材料偏好(da Veiga Ferreira 1951; Lillios 1997, 2008)似乎反映了其他西地中海地区对装饰品和其他抛光石器的原材料偏好(Goñi quinteriro等人1999;Harrison和Orozco Köhler 2001; Pascual Benito 1998; Skeates 2010; Teruel Berbell 1986),这表明埃斯特雷马杜拉人参与了一个更广泛的共同象征价值体系的各个方面。
From an analysis of over 3,000 beads and pendants from seven contemporary Late Neolithic/Copper Age (3500–2500 BC) sites in the Portuguese Estremadura, two dominant patterns emerge: (1) most beads show a high degree of standardization in terms of size and shape and are made from local materials; and (2) a minority are made from non-local, rare, and visually distinctive materials (e.g.variscite, ivory), and are less standardized and more labour-intensive. The emphasis on a wide-range of materials suggests that uncommon ornaments may have functioned as ‘value added' materials with special significance, enhancing potential design combinations. Material preferences for beads, bracelets, pendants, plaques, and ground stone tools (da Veiga Ferreira 1951; Lillios 1997, 2008) appear to mirror other Western Mediterranean raw material preferences for ornaments and other polished stone objects (Goñi Quinteiro et al. 1999; Harrison and Orozco Köhler 2001; Pascual Benito 1998; Skeates 2010; Teruel Berbell 1986) suggesting that the Estremadura participated in aspects of a wider system of shared symbolic values.
