Silver and carnelian (a type of agate).
Rings can be worn in a variety of ways. The smaller rings were worn on the fingers by both women and men, and the larger ones like this were typically strung on a leather cord and were worn around the neck or even braided into the hair. The use of carnelian, as well as other agates, is also meaningful. It has a strong protective aspect. As in many other cultures, carnelian is associated with blood and life through its color.
