"The glass beads are of European origin. They have, thanks to the trade between the natives, come into the possession of the bisa people and eventually end up with the swamp people through exchange. Some of these pearls are of the ancient type and so worn that the pearls worn on a necklace, rubbing against each other, have lost their original globe shape and have turned into glass rings with curved outer sides but with top and bottom sides completely flat. Necklaces are used by both men and women. These ornaments usually consist of a simple base cord, on which copper rings or glass beads as well as some amulets consisting of wooden sticks are strung. Sometimes batwa women are seen with the long and thick, multicolored pearl strings commonly found among the mainlanders, wrapped several turns around the neck (pl. 19 and 49). These ornaments are never worn by men. The necklaces depicted here (Figs. 44 and 45) are not only ornaments, but have also been worn as amulets against disease. Fig. 45 shows that the band consists of twelve wooden sticks and five white and three blue glass beads. All wooden sticks have been burned at both ends." (pp. 160-163, von Rosen, 1916, translated from Swedish).
