About Islamic Beads (7th to 13th century):
Islamic beads, originating from the Middle East (Israel), were traded across the Sahara Desert to the African trade hub of Timbuktu around the 10th century AD. These beads are a testament to the rich cultural exchanges of the time and the enduring legacy of Islamic craftsmanship.
