Title in ENGLISH : This book is not only about beads and bangles, their production cycles, people involved in their manufacture and the craftsmen but also about one of the most important glass-craft clusters of the world. The evolution of technology and skills with regard to the making of the furnace and kiln over the centuries, and the invention of new methods for producing variety of beads are the essence of this book. The archaeological community has reconstructed ancient cities with glass-making and/or glass-working workshops and has formulated many hypotheses about them, thereby recording ethnographically and visually a cluster of glass cities identical to those which existed millennia ago.
