*Stone beads*: Some rounded of flattened beads perforated from both the ends, of carnelian, agate and onyx were found near the crossing (22°41'; 86°12') of the present railway line with the road from KUDADA (22°42'; 86°13') and from KUNDARKOCHA (22 30'; 86°15'). Such beads have also been reported from other parts of Singhbhum. But it was a living industry till the early part of this century according to the old inhabitants (1940).
