Body ornament Japan By the Middle Jōmon period, the food supply in Japan had stabilized enough that the Jōmon people could focus their activities more on crafts and spiritual life.

It is speculated that body ornamentation may have served a religious or spiritual purpose, but it may also have represented social rank and status.. Body ornament 62279

Fragment of a Cup 100 BCE-100 CE Eastern Mediterranean Region. In ancient Rome, there was a high demand for colorful glass that could dazzle banquet guests alongside the expensive silver and gold serving wares meant to impress. Fragments like this one would have once been a part of larger mosaic dishes. The mosaic pattern was made by sagging molten glass into bowl-shaped molds, a technique used on many of these fragments is similar to millefiori, ìthousand flowersî in Italian, a modern glass-making method in which tiny rods of colored glass are bundled together, wrapped in a sheet of glass, fused, and then thinly sliced to reveal swirls of a flower-like patterns. They were arranged side by side, sometimes together with bits of colored glass, and fused together with heat.. Glass, mosaic glass technique . Ancient Roman

Double Bell late 19th century Cameroonian This double bell is played by striking it with a wood beater and produces two pitches a fourth apart. Single and double bells made from forged iron are widespread in West Africa and have many different names. Agogo, a term used by the Yoruba and other Nigerian peoples, is also found in Afro-Caribbean cultures. The bells are sounded to send messages, make announcements, and perform divination. The bell's timbre is varied by letting it ring freely or by damping it against the chest.Handheld clapperless bells are struck on the outer surface, providing the player with the control needed to articulate many complex rhythmic patterns common in African music. One bell pattern is a timeline rhythm, a pattern that is the most unchanging and constant in the ensemble; it acts as a reference pulse for other instruments. The timeline rhythm may be associated with an event, a dance, a person, or a deity and changes to meet the particular circumstance. Other i

The prominently sloping shoulders of this lid's accompanying canister were designed by Paul Jacques de Lamerie in the early 1730s and became a standard form for tea caddies by the end of the decade.
