Torques

This torques is made up of twisted tubes and cords between them. One of the ends is missing: at the other end, we find an acorn shape with a grooved neck and a ring with a ring for closure. It is the same as a pair kept at the Valencia de Don Juan Institute, one of them unrolled and accompanied by a clay doll. It comes from a Palencia collection / Extracted from: A.A.V.V.: Gómez-Moreno Institute (catalog). Granada, 1992, p. 203
