Abstract
In the upper Piedmont region of North Carolina, along the Yadkin River, specimens of copper have been found at three village sites.As illustrated, the largest specimen appears to be a copper breast plate. Five tubular beads are represented. Seven pieces are roughly cone-shaped and could be classified as decorative bangles, although those which are more proportional and smoothly finished could have been used as arrow tips. The two triangular pierced pendants were found at sites forty miles apart. The copper hawk's bell, a trader's piece evidently of English origin, still rings merrily when shaken. A broken half of the same design was found forty miles away at a other site. Two fragments of unfinished copper are illustrated (Fig. 135).
