About Etched Carnelian:

Era: 2500-1800 BCE

Etched Carnelian beads from the Indus Valley Civilization are decorated using a natron liquid derived from plants, which is then baked at low temperatures of 300-400 degrees Celsius. While they have been unearthed in Mesopotamian and Afghan archaeological sites, it is believed that the beads were originally crafted in the Indus River region and transported via land and sea routes.
